Blue Water på opkøb i Canada

Blue Water Shipping udvider nu reeferaktiviteterne i den nordatlantiske region gennem opkøb af Freightway International med base i Newfoundland. Opkøbet vil styrke Blue Waters fokus på de canadiske og nordatlantiske markeder

“At få egne faciliteter og kontor i Canada er et betydningsfuldt skridt for Blue Water. Det gør det muligt for os at udvide vores nuværende udbud af services til det canadiske marked”, siger Frank Madsen, Global Director Reefer Sea, Blue Water Shipping.

Freightway International blev grundlagt i 1989 af David Jamison Andrews, som er kendt som en af de førende indenfor logistikbranchen. Med base i St. Johns, Newfoundland har firmaet udviklet en unik niche ved at levere skræddersyede services til fiskeindustrien – især til seafoodfabrikker på land og til firmaer, som driver store offshore-fabrikstrawlere.

Det familiedrevne firma har 11 ansatte. David Jamison Andrews, hans kone Sharon og parrets søn David Alan Andrews har gennem alle årene opbygget langtidsholdbare relationer til kunderne og opnået status som kundernes “go-to”-firma.

Med den nye lokation i Newfoundland har Blue Water solid dækning af den nordatlantiske region med kontorer i Grønland, Island og Canada – og på globalt plan har firmaet mere end 60 kontorer.

Det er Blue Waters ambition at ekspandere yderligere i Canada. “Vi ser et stort potentiale for at ekspandere yderligere i det vestlige Canada med lokationer i områder som for eksempel Halifax, Toronto eller Montreal, da det vil gøre det muligt for os at servicere både eksisterende og fremtidige kunder endnu bedre”, siger Rasmus Fogh Jakobsen.
