SGL said: “As a G20 economy, South Korea holds a pivotal and well-established position in the trade markets of Southeast Asia and beyond with a business-friendly and efficient regulatory environment. This acquisition aligns with SGL’s strategy to be present in the largest economies worldwide.”

Allan Melgaard, global ceo of SGL, added: “We have been doing business in South Korea for many years already, but it will be different to operate under our own brand with new colleagues that we know are offering the same high standard service to customers, that we do ourselves.”

The company now actively operates in 50 countries.
