Germany-headquartered global logistics and freight forwarding provider Drewes Logistics established a subsidiary in India, effective January 1, 2026, having acquired a majority stake in Logistics Plus India.
Seven locations in New Delhi, Gurgaon, Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune and Ahmedabad have been transferred from Logistics Plus India Pvt Ltd to the newly formed entity, Drewes Logistics India, with all fully integrated into the group’s international network.
“With Drewes Logistics India, we are now offering our expertise in project logistics, ocean freight and airfreight in one of the world’s fastest-growing major economies,” said Patric Drewes, managing director of Drewes Logistics.
Former managing director of Logistics Plus India, Sundreysh Sarup will head up the new entity, which currently employs 52 people. “I have known the market, our customers and our teams for many years,” said Sarup. “Together with the global expertise of Drewes Logistics, we are now creating a strong combination of an international network and deep local market knowledge.”
Patric Drewes added: “Diversified supply chains, geopolitical risk mitigation and new bilateral trade initiatives are prompting many European companies to expand their activities in South Asia. As a result, demand is rising for internationally integrated logistics providers that combine global standards with local market expertise.”
Last month saw Marc Fischborn join Drewes Group as its branch manager in Antwerp, Belgium. In March 2025, HLPFI reported that Drewes was looking to increase its presence in Southeast Asia.
