Trans Polonia, a Polish logistics firm, has submitted a non-binding offer to acquire an international transport and logistics company for 33.5 million euros. The target, which remains unnamed, generates annual revenues of 80 million euros and operates across Europe in a segment matching Trans Polonia’s core business.
The offer is an expression of interest and does not create legal obligations. Trans Polonia will continue due diligence and negotiations. The acquisition fits the group’s growth strategy, promising benefits from economies of scale.
The company expects commercial synergies such as expanding customer bases and contract portfolios at the European level. Operational synergies include route optimization, better load factors, and reduced empty runs. Investment synergies cover joint fleet management and shared warehouse infrastructure.
Strategic synergies and chemical transport focus
Synergies also target HR consolidation, competence exchange, and technical integration of telematics, IT, and fleet management systems. The target’s infrastructure is particularly suited for large-volume chemical transport via inland waterways to the ARA ports (Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp).
– The infrastructure for chemical transport via rivers is a priority direction for our strategic development and will complement our service portfolio with competencies in inland waterway cargo preparation – said a representative of Trans Polonia’s management board.
This capability is listed among the group’s priority growth directions and could extend Trans Polonia’s services into operations related to preparing shipments for inland navigation.
Financing and parallel acquisition
Trans Polonia plans to finance the potential deal from own funds, including recent proceeds from a share buyback, and bank debt. The company does not plan to issue new shares for this acquisition.
Simultaneously, the group is involved in another acquisition process targeting a different transport company, with a potential value of up to 2 billion zloty.
In the first quarter of 2026, Trans Polonia generated revenues of 123.7 million zloty, a 135% increase year-on-year, but posted a net loss of 3.7 million zloty compared to a 0.9 million zloty profit a year earlier.
– We are committed to pursuing value-creating opportunities that strengthen our position in the European logistics market – added the board member.
The non-binding offer marks a step in the company’s active M&A strategy. Further updates will be provided as due diligence and negotiations progress.
