The company's core business is the operation of Borussia Dortmund's professional squad. The club is one of the best in Germany, as evidenced by its regular participation in the UEFA Champions League, among other things. In addition to traditional income from match operations, TV marketing and sponsorship are the main sources of revenue. The company also specialises in the so-called "scout & develop" strategy, whereby young talents are signed for low transfer fees and then sold at a profit after a certain period of time at the club. Other business areas include merchandising as well as income from matchday catering and marketing the stadium. As BVB can boast significant locational advantages, such as having the largest stadium in Germany with over 81,000 seats, the club should also be able to defend its leading position in Germany in the future.
