Dachser completes Frigoscandia buy

[ March 4, 2024   //   ]

Dachser formally completed its purchase of Frigoscandia on 4 March and will now fully integrate the Scandinavian specialist into its Food Logistics network.

It follows the agreement signed at the end of December to acquire the company from private equity investor Mutares and approval for the deal by the European Commission in February.

Dachser is currently represented in the Nordics by European Logistics, its business line for the transport and warehousing of industrial and consumer goods, as well as by an air and sea freight organization.

Frigoscandia, headquartered in Helsingborg, offers services across Sweden through a nationwide network, using its own truck fleet and those of its service partners. It also operates warehousing, 12 logistics facilities in Sweden and three in Norway.

Frigoscandia has since 2019 been a partner for Sweden, Finland, and Norway in the European Food Network, an association of leading European food logistics providers in 34 countries, which Dachser founded and manages as system leader. “
