IMAP Netherlands advises the shareholders of Share Logistics on sale to Groupe BBL

IMAP Netherlands is pleased to announce that Share Logistics, a major Dutch freight forwarder and logistics provider predominantly active in air and ocean freight, was acquired by Groupe BBL (“Groupe BBL”), a French logistical service provider.

Share Logistics, led by Jan Crezee and a team of highly experienced managers was founded in 2008 through a Management Buy Out. The company is specialized in freight forwarding, predominantly in air and ocean freight, offering a complete range of door-to-door logistics to a diverse and loyal client base including global blue-chip companies and SMEs.

Share Logistics is headquartered in Rotterdam and has 16 European offices, mostly in the Netherlands, Spain, Germany and France, with 6 additional offices in North and Latin America (USA and Brazil). Share Logistics employs approximately 250 professionals with a combined group revenue close to €‎230 million.

Groupe BBL, founded in 1997, is active in four business segments: contract logistics, overseas transport, road transport & groupage and customs & compliance services. Their strategy focuses on the coordination of highly specialized and self-driven teams committed to serving their customers’ supply chain. Between 2017 and 2022, Groupe BBL’s employee base grew from 440 to 1,450 and its annual revenue rose from €‎121 million to €‎600 million, reflecting both organic growth and inorganic growth by a series of acquisitions.

Jan Crezee, founder and CEO of Share Logistics commented: “We were very pleased to experience the value of IMAP Netherlands. They demonstrated a strong understanding of our business, our buy-and-build strategy and market dynamics in the Transport & Logistics sector. They helped us in creating a compelling equity story, finding the right international buyer and negotiating the best deal possible. Thanks to the IMAP Netherlands team we really seized momentum through this deal. Moreover, we really valued the commitment, personal touch and relentless efforts of the team members in getting the transaction closed."

IMAP Netherlands has ample experience and an unrivaled track record in the Transport and Logistics sector, bringing knowledge of the most recent trends and developments. Throughout this transaction, it leveraged its expertise and well-developed network in the sector to facilitate a competitive sales process, resulting in a transaction at attractive terms and conditions with the right buyer. The global IMAP network proved to be highly valuable in identifying and communicating with international buyers, with the team from IMAP France finding the perfect buyer in Groupe BBL.

The IMAP Netherlands team, led by Guillaume Petit, Cees van Vliet and Thomas Verhoeckx, advised Share Logistics on the sale and supported them throughout the transaction process.
