The takeover marks the fifth transaction by Janssen in the past ten months and represents a step forward, as a first entry into the UK logistics market and a significant expansion in Asia.

“This is an exciting time for Norman Global Logistics,” said Peter O’Brien, Martin Rue and Stefan Holmqvist, managing directors of Norman Global Logistics.

“We are delighted to be joining Janssen Group and look forward to working together to offer a wider range of services to our clients.”
