Insolvency shock: Doner manufacturer from basket is fighting for rescue!

In the world of food production, the lights go out for Alzarro Dönerworld GmbH from Korbussen, Thuringia. The company filed for bankruptcy on July 12, 2025, and the Gera district court appointed lawyer Kai Dellit as a provisional insolvency administrator, such as mdr.de reported.

challenges and renovation plans

The lack of delivery led to lower sales than expected, which further tightened the financial situation. Talks with an investor did not run as desired, and it seems that Alzarro is under pressure. Nevertheless, the management has drawn up a renovation plan to stabilize the sales. Insolvency administrator Kai Dellit has the task of putting the company back on stable feet to employ the 70 to 80 employees who continue to strive for 15,000 ready-made dates every day. In the best case, 100,000 could theoretically be produced.

In the context of the current economic situation, Alzarro's difficulties are not alone. In the first quarter of 2024, a total of 5,209 corporate insolvencies in Germany were registered, an increase of 26.5 % compared to the previous year, as can report the Schulner- Inovenz-Centrum . This has been the highest level of bankruptcies for almost a decade, and the forecasts indicate a further increase of around 10 % for 2024.

an outlook on the future

What could bring the future for Alzarro? It remains to be seen how the planned renovation measures work and whether the company can create the turn. Consumers are curious whether they will continue to find their favorite dishes, such as the "kebab", on the shelves of their supermarkets. The hopes are now on the shoulders of the insolvency administrator and the management team, who have to define the course in this difficult time.
