Hubert Burda Media's former in-house venture division invests for a minority position in Frontline.
Acton Capital Partners, a Germany-based venture capital firm backed by media group Hubert Burda, has invested an undisclosed amount in local fashion retailer Frontline for a minority stake.
Founded by Torsten Lange as a mail-order service for the audio recording industry, the company moved over to fashion in 1984.
Frank Seehaus, a managing partner at Acton, said "The team [at Frontline] has built an ideal base to turn the company into an international fashion industry champion."
