Banks: troubled Volksbank Brawo to divest its restaurant businesses

The Volksbank Brawo is restructuring its struggling gastronomy division, BG Gastro, by returning three of its six restaurants to their previous owner, Halil Deniz's Peacock Holding, effective August 1, 2026. The restaurants "Havn" in Hannover, "Glashaus" in Burgdorf, and "Frida am See" in Burgwedel will be managed by Deniz's company again.

The future of the remaining three restaurants, including "Überland" in the Brawo-Park, is uncertain, with a decision expected soon. The move is part of Volksbank Brawo's portfolio adjustment, which involves around 400 investments, and follows significant financial losses in the gastronomy sector, including a €413,540 loss in 2023.
