Yusen Logistics has acquired e-commerce delivery and fulfilment specialist ILG. Yusen anticipates that the acquisition will result in a 12% revenue growth for Yusen Logistics pushing them towards being one of the UK’s top 10 logistics providers.
Established in 1990, International Logistics Group is one of the growing market leaders in e-commerce warehousing, fulfilment and delivery, with an added specific expertise in the fashion and beauty verticals. ILG’s commitment to delivering high-quality services has led to growth over the last decade and at present, the company is offering over 175,000 sq ft of warehousing, with over 220 employees serving more than 700 clients worldwide.
Yusen Logistics UK’s expansion into the UK’s fastest growing sectors (e-commerce) is a direct response to changing market behaviour. Yusen Logistics provides full end-to-end international supply chain services which will now give ILG and its customers additional expertise in customs brokerage, cross-border logistics, and access to a further 82 locations with 7m sq ft of warehousing across Europe.
Andy Fitt, Managing Director of Yusen Logistics (UK), commented: “This acquisition reinforces our commitment to continued investment in the UK and we’re delighted to be joining forces with ILG.”
