German insolvency courts announce measures for dozens of companies, including a Baden‑Württemberg brewery

On 6 July 2026 German insolvency courts published a wave of new security measures in corporate insolvency proceedings. The filings cover a wide spectrum of firms – from industrial and mechanical engineering companies such as Braun Connectivity Solutions Group GmbH and LUNYVO UG, to IT and consulting outfits like Datarella GmbH and etec Consult GmbH, as well as businesses in gastronomy, logistics, real estate and plastics. These measures freeze assets to prevent value loss while courts decide whether to open formal insolvency processes.

Among the cases, the traditional Schussenrieder Brauerei Ott in Baden‑Württemberg filed for insolvency, placing roughly 50 jobs at risk. Production continues under court‑appointed administration, which will evaluate restructuring options or potential investors. The brewery cites the lasting effects of the COVID‑19 pandemic, soaring energy and raw‑material costs linked to international conflicts, and shifting consumer preferences in the beverage market as key factors behind its financial distress.
