DLA Piper advises Jump House on acquisition of Superfly Franchise Park

DLA Piper advised Hamburg-based leisure company Jump House on the acquisition of CTT Frankfurt GmbH. In January 2023, the DLA Piper team lead by Dr Christoph Dachner and Christian Fenner already assisted on the acquisition of the Superfly Group. One trampoline park in Frankfurt has since then been operated by the founders of the Superlfy group as a franchise park for Superfly and has now been fully integrated into the Jump House group.

Jump House was founded in 2014 by Hamburg entrepreneurs Till Walz and Christoph Ahmadi and opened Germany's first trampoline park in the same year. In fall 2021, the company has been acquired by the Norwegian Parc Invest AS (Rush Group), whose main shareholder is Equip Capital Fund I.

DLA Piper advised on the acquisition of the Jump House Group by Parc Invest / Equip Capital in fall 2021 and has since advised Jump House on several acquisitions, including the acquisition of UpSprung GmbH and the Sprungbude group in 2023.

The DLA Piper team for this transaction was led by counsel Dr Christoph Dachner (Corporate/M&A, Munich) and partner Christian Fenner (Corporate/M&A, Oslo, Norway).

Also involved were partners Gerald Schumann (Corporate/M&A, Munich), Dr Burkhard Führmeyer (IP), Dr Björn Enders (Tax, both Frankfurt), counsel Dr Enno Ahlenstiel (Antitrust, Cologne), Georg Haberkorn (Pensions, Munich), Patrick Reuter (Finance), senior associates Eike Bodo Matthes (IP), Rainer Hartmann (Tax/Transfer Pricing) and associate Ilgin Ayhan (Finance, all Frankfurt).
