Case study: Hong Kong | Sweden
BALtrans Holdings acquired Gothenburg Shipping Logistics

BALtrans is a multi-national freight forwarding and logistics enterprise headquartered in Hong Kong and listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. As part of its ongoing expansion of business in Europe and the USA, BALtrans appointed M&A International Inc.'s Hong Kong-based member to assist in sourcing suitable acquisition targets. It worked with members from across Europe to identify a number of targets. M&A International's member in Sweden identified, and in conjunction with BALtrans, approached the owner of Gothenburg Shipping Logistics AB ("GSL"), a major player in the freight forwarding and transportation industry in Sweden.

After an initial meeting in Gothenburg between members of M&A International and GSL, followed by further meetings in Hong Kong, a privately negotiated acquisition of GSL was concluded. This provides a solid Scandinavian platform through which BALtrans can further develop its presence throughout the Scandinavian and Northern European market.

Richard Winter, lead advisor commented: "Only with our international coverage were we able to identify a range of suitable acquisition targets and approach them on a personal and local basis. This allowed us to develop a close working relationship between BALtrans and the owners of GSL at an early stage, to ensure a smooth and timely process through to completion."
