Scan Global Logistics (SGL) has added ITN Logistics Group (ITN), a privately owned Canadian freight forwarder, to its portfolio.
The move will strengthen SGL’s Canadian operations by bringing further scale, locations and increased market share.
“Acquiring ITN is a strategic move that enhances our presence in Canada and North America. We have worked with ITN for many years, and the ITN organisation’s focus on the customer, as well as their entrepreneurial spirit, aligns very well with ours,” said Allan Melgaard, global ceo of SGL.
ITN is based in Toronto and has four locations across Canada, employing more than 250 employees. Its services include import and export within air and ocean freight, customs brokerage, inland transportation, transborder trucking and consolidation services, warehousing, project forwarding and distribution offerings.
“It was essential to find a partner that shares our values and vision – SGL is a perfect cultural and strategic fit, ensuring continued growth and care for our team and customers,” added Monica Kennedy, major shareholder and president of ITN.
Earlier this year, SGL acquired Blu Logistics Brasil in a bid to continue its influence in Latin America.
