Description
The company owns and operates a well-maintained fleet, including temperature-controlled chassis and gensets, enabling it to reliably transport perishable goods between PoLB terminals and customer facilities. With a highly experienced leadership team and strong, long-standing relationships with freight forwarders, brokers, and importers, the company offers an excellent platform for growth in the booming cold chain logistics market.

Niche Expertise: Specializes in cold chain transport for temperature-sensitive cargo—fruits, vegetables, meats, beverages, and more.
Scalable Operations: 44 employees, including 28 drivers and 16 office staff, supported by flexible dispatch and specialized equipment.
Experienced Management: Strong leadership with decades of experience in logistics and global shipping.
Robust Client Relationships: Multi-year partnerships with top freight forwarders and growing business with food distributors.
Asset-Backed Business: Control over critical reefer transport assets (chassis, gensets) reduces reliance on external pools.
Growth Potential:
Expand direct sales to food importers/distributors (projected 30–40% profit growth in 3 years).
Potential entry into pharmaceutical or beauty product transport.
Add related services such as real-time temperature monitoring or short-term storage.
Capitalize on increasing demand for high-integrity cold chain logistics.
Transaction:
The sole shareholder is seeking a full sale of the business. The transaction includes all operating assets, key customer relationships, and transition support from the current leadership team.
Location:
