Rhenus acquires Freight Logistics
Rhenus acquired the international freight forwarder and logistics solutions provider Freight Logistics headquartered in Miami (FL, USA), on 16 April. Freight Logistics operates its own consolidation hub located near Miami’s international airport, and has its own offices in Argentina, Brazil and Chile.
Following prior acquisitions by the Rhenus group in Brazil and Canada, the takeover of Freight Logistics will further strengthen the company’s presence in the Americas.
“This purchase is an important step for us in expanding our business activities in the Americas and follows our latest acquisition of Rodair in Canada in early 2019. We can consolidate our network there and serve both North America and the Latin American region from Miami as our new gateway. It confirms our global perspective and helps us establish more links between the continents,” said Jörn Schmersahl, CEO of Rhenus Air & Ocean Americas. (mw)
