MSC-owned logistics and supply chain provider MEDLOG has completed the acquisition of Maritime Group Limited (Maritime), a logistics operator in the United Kingdom.

The acquisition was completed on 2 September.

“We are really pleased to have secured the long-term future of the business as part of an independent, global logistics organisation capable of providing the continued investment to help us with our exciting plans to develop the company [Maritime] for all our stakeholders,” commented John Williams, Executive Chairman of Maritime Group.

He went on to add, “We will continue to develop practical, technology-driven, infrastructure-led, supply chain solutions and setting a high bar for service performance in the UK with new battery electric trucks on order and our rail terminals operating on an open access basis for existing and new customers.”

Founded 23 years ago, Maritime has grown from modest beginnings into one of the UK’s top logistics providers, known for its flexible and innovative approach. With a workforce of 3,000 employees and a state-of-the-art network spanning 41 sites across the UK, Maritime offers a wide range of integrated road and rail freight logistics services, including container transport and storage, domestic distribution, freight management, and truck sales.

Following the acquisition, Maritime’s current management team, led by John Williams, will continue to operate the business under the ‘Maritime’ brand, with new investment support from MEDLOG. Operations will proceed without interruption.
