K+N Buys Seafood Logistics Specialist; Salmosped

Global freight and logistics giant Kuehne+Nagel (KN) has entered into a binding agreement to acquire 100% of the shares in Salmosped, a leading Norwegian perishables freight forwarder specialising in the transport of seafood products.

Kuehne-Nagel

KN said the move strengthened the group’s perishables network and its “footprint in air freight exports from this important seafood producing country”. Oslo-based Salmosped generated turnover of CHF 118 million in 2020 and handled approximately 63,000 tonnes of goods.

Over the years, KN has developed a global perishables logistics network with more than 70 stations worldwide “that ensure that products reach end-consumers with an optimal shelf life and maximum freshness”. The company added: “Within the perishables segment, the bolt-on acquisition of Salmosped enhances Kuehne+Nagel’s global network in seafood as it complements existing operations in Halifax, Vancouver (both Canada), London (UK) and Santiago de Chile.”

Dennis Verkooy, senior vice president for global perishables and head of air logistics carrier management at Kuehne+Nagel, said: “Perishables logistics is a strong growth driver for Kuehne+Nagel. While we have been present in the seafood business in Norway for years, today’s acquisition strengthens our footprint in air freight exports from this important seafood producing country. We are looking forward to enlarging our Norwegian team with Salmosped’s specialists.”

Norway is one of the largest fishery and aquaculture producers in the world. Despite the pandemic, Norway’s fish exports remained strong, with attractive prospects for fisheries and marine aquaculture growth in light of its 21,000 km long coastline.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including clearance by the competent merger control authorities.
