The acquisition, according to Pentagon, supports the group’s growth and reinforces its position as a key player in the global freight industry.  

“One of the primary drivers behind this acquisition is the shared vision of Pentagon and Alfons Freriks to leverage advanced technologies and digitalisation, enabling streamlined operations, enhanced visibility, and optimised supply chain management,” said Pentagon.   

The integration of their respective technological capabilities will provide customers with greater control and efficiency throughout the shipping process, reducing costs and improving overall service quality.
