BURNLEY based EFS Global has acquired Courier Connections, with depots in Bellshill, Broxburn and Perth, for an undisclosed figure, in a deal which is seen as a springboard for future growth.
Claiming to be one of North West England’s largest freight forwarding and haulage groups it’s EFS Global’s first acquisition in Scotland.
The latest deal means EFS will now have 17 depots and offices across the UK.
Mark Jones, MD of EFS Global, said: “The acquisition of a Scotland based entity is an exciting development for the business.
“The deal follows a number of other acquisitions made by us in recent years including Euro SDB, CS Brunt, Bradtrans International, Horizon Distribution, Euro-Tran Despatch, JRS Traction, PDQ Specialist Courier Services, FWD Freight Services, Caistor Distribution, AFI UK, and Austin Wilkinson & Sons.”
