What Boymann does

Boymann Garten- und Landschaftsbau GmbH & Co. KG is a family-owned German garden and landscape construction company founded in 1980 and now operated in the second generation by brothers Jens and Henrik Boymann. The company employs approximately 250 staff across three operational locations — Glandorf (headquarters and home to the 20-hectare tree nursery), Hamburg, and Dortmund — and serves private households, commercial enterprises, municipalities, and other landscape construction companies across Northern and Western Germany, with reference projects also in neighboring countries. Business is structured under a Kommanditgesellschaft with GmbH general partner entities at each branch, plus a wholly-owned subsidiary, Boymann Baumschulen Handelsgesellschaft mbH, that runs the wholesale nursery operation.

The company offers an integrated service portfolio spanning nine core lines: Garten- und Landschaftsbau (landscape construction for commercial and public-sector clients), Vertikalbegrünung (vertical greening using an in-house developed proprietary system for interior walls and exterior facades), Privatgärten (private garden planning and maintenance), Baumschule (a 20-hectare nursery producing up to 500,000 groundcovers, 10,000 avenue trees, and the Klimagehölze assortment of 38 climate-adapted varieties), Sportstättenbau (sports facility construction including artificial turf), Grünflächen-Management (recurring green space and tree care maintenance), Wassertechnik (fountains, wells, irrigation), Innenraumbegrünung (indoor planting), and Boymann Umwelt (environmental services covering substrate supply, transport, and disposal). Vertical integration is a defining feature: nursery output feeds the company's own installation projects, while surplus stock is sold wholesale to external GaLaBau firms.

Revenue mechanics are predominantly project-based professional services with no public pricing list; services are quoted per project based on scope, materials, and labor. Recurring revenue exists through multi-year Grünflächen-Management contracts with commercial and municipal clients, and through one-off nursery stock sales. Go-to-market is direct-to-customer via the company website, the private-gardening.de consumer portal, organic social channels (Facebook, Instagram), Google Ads / SEM, and industry events such as the URBAN UTOPIA Conference. Customer mix is split roughly across private (Privatkunden), commercial (Gewerbekunden), and public sector (Öffentliche Hand) buyers, with no anchor-customer dependencies disclosed in the public record.

Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• STRABAG SE: Europe's largest construction group, with landscaping and environmental engineering within its broader civil works portfolio. A broad incumbent competing with Boymann on large municipal and commercial landscape tenders rather than on niche specialty work.

Regional players

• Ebben Boomkwekerijen BV: Large Dutch tree nursery specializing in avenue and park trees for European landscape projects. Comparable to Boymann's nursery operations and climate-adapted assortment, although serving primarily Western European project markets from the Netherlands.

Direct peers

• Mobilane LivePanel: European supplier of modular living-wall and indoor greening systems with installation services. Comparable to Boymann's Innenraumbegrünung / Vertikalbegrünung practice as a competing vertical-greening specialist in the German-speaking and broader European market.
• Helmut Rübsamen GmbH & Co. KG: German Garten- und Landschaftsbau operator covering commercial, public-sector and residential projects, with sports facility and green-space management arms. Closely comparable in service breadth and regional mid-market positioning to Boymann.
• Bruns Pflanzen-Export GmbH & Co. KG: Major German wholesale tree nursery with broad assortment of landscape-grade trees, shrubs and groundcovers. Comparable on the nursery side of Boymann's vertical integration, including supply to other landscape construction firms.
• Lorenz von Ehren GmbH: One of Germany's largest and oldest tree nurseries, supplying avenue trees, solitaires and container plants across the German trade market. Direct comparable to Boymann's Baumschule / Boymanns Klimagehölze operations on the nursery production and wholesale side.
• Sempergreen Group: Dutch-based manufacturer and installer of modular green wall / vertical greening and roof greening systems. Comparable to Boymann on the proprietary Vertikalbegrünung offering, although Sempergreen is more product/system-led and less service-led.
• Kutter Garten- und Landschaftsbau GmbH & Co. KG: Long-established German GaLaBau contractor offering full-service landscape construction, maintenance and tree care. Comparable to Boymann in scope (planning → build → ongoing maintenance) and in operating as a mid-sized regional player with multi-generational footprint.
• idverde SAS: Leading European green-space services provider operating across construction, maintenance and urban greening via national subsidiaries. Direct comparable in bundling of construction + recurring maintenance and in serving municipal / commercial contracts at scale.

Others

• Royal Brinkman Group: Major Dutch horticultural supplier providing substrate, structures and inputs to nurseries, greenhouse growers and landscape operators. Adjacent supplier relevant to Boymann's nursery inputs, substrate and water-technology operations rather than a direct competitor.
