Completion of the transaction is subject to predetermined conditions and is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2023.
“Navadan have built a strong position as experts within their field. In addition, we really like their way of operating with short lead times and quick deliveries supported by a network of toll blenders. This is a highly complementary match for us, and I am really looking forward to completing this transaction to keep growing both companies together,” said Kjell André Engen, president of Wilhelmsen Ships Service.
Peter Krogh, owner and CEO of Navadan, said, “It has been a tremendous journey for the last 25 years, building Navadan into a strong supporting player for the commercial shipping industry together with all our colleagues. I see no better fit for this than Wilhelmsen Ships Service with their global maritime network.”
