Wetherby, UK: A Really Cool Company has been acquired by London-based Viso Logistics. Really Cool Company handles frozen, chilled and ambient food and beverages and will now operate within Viso Logistics network as an independent entity managed locally.
Andrew Wood, managing director, A Really Cool Company, said: “A partnership with Viso Logistics gives us the best of both worlds – we retain our company values, team and everything that makes us unique, but we also get to leverage off some excellent knowledge both inside and out of the logistics sector.
Alexi Jones, managing partner, Viso Logistics, added: “Our strategy is to acquire long-established, successful specialist logistics companies that have expertise in specific sectors. To work with a business like ARCC that is so highly regarded in the food and beverage and pharmaceutical sectors, and complimentary to our existing network, makes them a perfect fit for Viso Logistics.
“The ARCC team are passionate about the service they provide and are real experts in their field. We have been impressed with their depth of industry knowledge and committed team, and know that their service will be one that our expanding customer base will benefit from.
“The addition of ARCC expands our group’s growing footprint. Together with Jag Express in Cambridge, we now have a North-South axis which expands the scope of work we can undertake for our combined client base.”
