Commodity Centre acquires Transport Goossens
​

Picture
Commodity Centre Group, specialized in the storage, handling and distribution of mainly soft commodities such as coffee and cocoa, offers tailor-made solutions ranging from reception and quality control to packaging and transport, with over 230,000 m² of modern food-grade warehouses in the UK, Benelux, and Malaysia.
 
Since its foundation in 2013, Commodity Centre Belgium has been managed by Tamara Tanghe and Wim Jacobs. In addition to pursuing organic growth, the company also aims to strengthen its position through acquisitions, including door-to-door transport solutions for its customers.
 
Transport Goossens, a family business founded in 1990, operates with a modern fleet and focuses on transporting both conventional sea containers and reefers, primarily within the Benelux, France and Germany.

While Transport Goossens was looking for a way to ensure business continuity, Commodity Centre aimed to expand its transport operations in Belgium. The M&A expertise of De Putter & Co brought both parties together, resulting in a successful match.
