Norddeutsche Bauernsiedlung GmbH

What Norddeutsche Bauernsiedlung GmbH does

Norddeutsche Bauernsiedlung GmbH is a private, independent German engineering and planning consultancy founded in 1987 and headquartered in Hannover. The firm specializes in agricultural investment and financing consulting, construction planning, building permit applications, tendering, construction supervision, and corporate consulting for agricultural enterprises. It is an officially approved consulting firm for German agricultural investment promotion programs (AFP, EBI), which underpins its ability to advise clients on subsidized financing for rural construction projects.

Service delivery is organized through nine branch offices (Außenstellen) distributed across Niedersachsen, Hamburg, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Sachsen, Sachsen-Anhalt, Brandenburg and Thüringen, each staffed by a branch manager and supported by drafters and engineers using Allplan and AutoCAD. Project types span specialized barn construction (dairy, cattle, pig, poultry, equine), multi-purpose and storage halls (potato, grain, fruit, CA storage), commercial and residential buildings, and land consolidation (Flurneuordnung) procedures.

The group operates under the NBS-Bauernsiedlung-Gruppe umbrella alongside wholly-owned subsidiary NBS Landentwicklung GmbH, which handles land consolidation mandates in Sachsen-Anhalt, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Sachsen. The supervisory council (Beirat) comprises 14 members drawn from agriculture, banking and ministries, and leadership consists of Managing Director Volker Mahnken and Beirat Chairman Volker Hahn. Revenue is project-based, quote-driven and not publicly disclosed, with no external private equity or venture capital backing evident in the data.

Regional players

Others

• AFC Public Services GmbH: AFC Public Services is a Bonn-based consultancy advising public and private clients on agricultural, food, and rural development policy, funding programs, and project planning—directly comparable to NBS's investment and financing advisory practice for agricultural clients.

Broad incumbents

• Agravis Raiffeisen AG: Agravis is a large German agricultural cooperative group with advisory, input supply, and project support services for member farmers, including construction and farm development support that overlaps with NBS's investment consulting and farm planning services at scale.
