Marc Coucke is one of the investors who subscribed to the capital increase of Compagnie des Alpes, the owner of amusement parks Walibi and Bellewaerde. He becomes shareholders with a few percent of the shares in his possession. That reports The time.

Through his investment company Alychlo, Coucke buys shares for almost 10 million euros in Compagnie des Alpes, which was looking for investors to carry out a capital increase. The French company is the owner of amusement parks Walibi and Bellewaerde, but also several large ski domains.
Thanks to the capital increase, the French group will raise 231 million euros, with which it wants to reduce its debt ratio but also to finance new investments.
For Coucke it is not his first introduction to the leisure sector. He owns shares in animal park Pairi Daiza and ski park SnowWorld. Coucke is also the big man in Durbuy today: he owns, among other things, the Adventure Valley adventure park.
