We seek out investment opportunities, restructure companies and support their continued growth.
The Opportunities Division focuses on identifying and acquiring new opportunities and companies in difficulty, and subsequently restructuring them.
Building on the experience gained through the implementation of restructuring projects, we are now leveraging our established industrial and technological infrastructure to carry out major acquisitions across Europe. We are actively involved in the management, transformation and development of companies, with a focus on their long-term potential, stable growth and added value for the entire group. The division’s activities also include strategic investments, capital support for business development, and tolling partnerships that provide production capacity and resources to partners in the market.

and exports to dozens of international markets.
Beohemija joined the CE Industries group in 2021, at a time of significant market instability and supply chain disruptions. Thanks to the group’s financial strength, expertise and strategic management, the company has undergone an extensive transformation focused on automation, production modernisation and international growth. In just under three years, it has almost doubled its turnover from €21 million to over €42 million, expanded its distribution from 7 to 12 markets, and now exports to around 20 countries. Part of this development involved investments exceeding €7 million in production modernisation, robotisation, logistics infrastructure and its own distribution platform, Kaumy SEE. Thanks to a 90% increase in production capacity for powder products and by 70% for liquid products, Beohemija has become one of the most technologically advanced manufacturers of household chemicals in the region and has also successfully entered almost all major European retail chains.

Tolling projects and operational financing
We help industrial companies stabilise production, finance operations and resume business activities during difficult times.
NOVÁ HUŤ is one of the most significant tolling projects. Thanks to the financing and commercial support provided by CE Industries and Vítkovice Machinery Trade (VMT), it has been possible to resume production and stabilise operations and commercial relationships. Since December 2024, VMT has been providing production financing through a tolling model worth 3.6 billion crowns. The model enables the purchase of raw materials, the financing of operations, commercial management and the sale of production, as well as support for the restoration of key operations. Once operations had stabilised, NOVÁ HUŤ focused on modernisation. In 2025, it invested approximately 65 million crowns in equipment renewal, and in 2026 it plans to invest around 150 million crowns. At the same time, it is preparing projects aimed at modernising production, improving energy efficiency and reducing its environmental footprint.
