Bergeijk Logistics Acquires Visser to Expand Austrian Operations

Bergeijk Logistics has completed an acquisition of Visser Transport Agencies, marking a strategic expansion of its logistics footprint in Austria. This transaction represents a consolidation move within the European regional logistics market, particularly in fresh produce and horticultural distribution networks. The acquisition enables Bergeijk to enhance its operational capacity and service coverage across the Austrian market, a key hub for Central European supply chains.

For supply chain professionals, this development underscores the ongoing trend of logistics consolidation in Europe, where mid-market operators are combining capabilities to achieve economies of scale and improve regional penetration. The deal strengthens Bergeijk's ability to serve customers requiring reliable cold-chain and last-mile distribution services, particularly critical for temperature-sensitive agricultural commodities moving through Alpine and Central European corridors. The strategic importance lies in market positioning—by acquiring established local transport operators, Bergeijk gains immediate access to customer relationships, operational infrastructure, and regulatory knowledge that would take years to build independently.

This approach is increasingly common among logistics consolidators seeking to compete against larger multinational operators while maintaining regional agility.
