JARO Group, a leading civil and cultural engineering group active in the ground, road, and water construction sector, has acquired BeKaBe Bekabeling B.V. (BeKaBe) as of September 30, 2024. BeKaBe conducts above-ground and underground cable projects for a variety of clients. With this acquisition, JARO Group expands its capacity in cable infrastructure, enabling the group to better serve its customers. JARO Group was supported in the acquisition by investor FIELDS Group, a partner that came on board in March 2024 to actively assist JARO Group in implementing its growth strategy.

“By adding their years of expertise, we strengthen our cable infrastructure capacity, where we are already active within the group through EZW Infra & Energie B.V. We look forward to building a shared future together with the BeKaBe team,” said Gerrit Kalkman from JARO. “The acquisition of BeKaBe aligns well with our strategy to be a leading multidisciplinary player in the ground, road, and water construction market,” added Fabianne Onderwater, Investment Director at FIELDS Group.
Mike Blansjaar from BeKaBe stated: “With this step, we secure the continuity of the company, BeKaBe can benefit from the advantages of the group, and it has a partner to facilitate further growth. A true win-win situation.”
