We are sure to benefit from the global life science competencies within LLG, as a base for our local portfolio extension, but also happily contribute our healthcare-knowledge to see it flourish in other European or the American markets.”

Matt Silverberg, CEO of Associated Couriers Inc.: “With the acquisition of Vision, we are adding another great market leader in a very promising healthcare logistics segment to our existing leadership portfolio, and we are adding the UK market as the 6th European country to the LLG footprint.
