USA-based logistics firm JAS is moving forward with plans to acquire Pentagon Freight Services with the signing of a share purchase agreement.
Headquartered in the UK, Pentagon is a specialised freight forwarder, project logistics and ships agency provider. JAS president and ceo Marco Rebuffi said the company “perfectly complements JAS’s strategic goals, significantly increasing our ability to offer highly specialised logistics solutions for the oil and gas, marine, construction, and energy industries.”
With over 1,200 employees in 65 offices around the world, JAS said that the acquisition will strengthen its position in critical sectors like oil and gas, energy, marine, and construction. The deal is subject to close in the second half of 2025, subject to regulatory approval.
Ashley Taylor, group ceo of Pentagon, said: “We are confident that JAS is the right company to expand our global network and achieve our growth ambitions. Our goal is to leverage our experience and continue to offer dedicated logistics solutions to our industry-leading clients.”
