Antwerp Cargo Movers, a fast-growing and successful company from Antwerp, can now call off its search for a new shareholder. They found the perfect partner to support their growth ambitions in the Gosselin Group, whose 90 years of experience in the logistics sector played a major role in this decision.

Thanks to Gosselin's support, Antwerp Cargo Movers will be able to continue to grow as an independent company. They will be able to rely on Gosselin’s back office solutions and logistical support, among other things.

“This acquisition is an excellent opportunity for Gosselin to further develop our activities,” explains Marc Smet, CEO of the Gosselin Group, “SDM Corporate Finance Group played an advisory role in this deal, which stipulates that Gosselin now controls 100% of ACM’s shares.”

Pairi Daiza collaboration - A cactus of considerable size

The most remarkable transport that Gosselin carried out in its collaboration with Pairi Daiza? Without a doubt, the impressive cactus, Pachycereus pringlei, from Tenerife, one of the most emblematic plants of the world’s largest tropical greenhouse, Edenya.

Pairi Daiza was looking for a reliable partner to handle all aspects of importing plants and materials from outside Europe. Everything was destined for Edenya, an impressive new universe within the park. Thanks to our own customs department CMC and the guarantee of a single point of contact for all shipments, we were able to offer exactly what Pairi Daiza needed: structure, expertise, and peace of mind.

Ultieme vorm van samenwerking voor meer dan 70 koelcontainers

“De sleutel: Efficiëntie van de planning. Een lichter (barge) om 72+ TEU in 1 keer mee te nemen. Anders zitten we met verschillende calls op MPET, met het risico dat we de afvaart missen én slagen we erin om ze bij aankomst meteen terug te koelen,” legt Bruno Cambien, Gosselin xxx in een mail uit aan MSC’s Intermodal Executive Martijn Lagaune. Het is de start van een opmerkelijk traject.
