SPECIALIST transport and logistics business CRT Group has acquired Golden Bros, one of Australia’s most reputable family-owned logistics companies.
CRT Group chief executive Cameron Dunn said the acquisition was part of CRT Group’s strategy to grow the business and provide a high level of service to an expanding customer base.
“It is an exciting time, as the acquisition of Golden Bros will provide sustainable growth through the expansion of our business both geographically and also through the diversification into market sectors such as dangerous goods,” he said.
“The strong foundation upon which the Golden Bros business has been built will enable CRT Group to offer an extensive range of services nationally.” The CRT Group has six national distribution centres and employs over 300 personnel.
Golden Bros is a privately owned national logistics business that has provided specialist services to the plastics and chemicals industries for over 25 years.
The company manages seven distribution centres across Australia, with a dedicated fleet and employing over 60 personnel.
Golden Bros founder Doug Golden, who will work with CRT Group to facilitate the smooth assimilation of the companies, welcomed the acquisition.
“Both Golden Bros and CRT Group share a strong commitment to providing a superior service and we look forward to becoming part of an expanding national business,” Golden said.
“We are extremely proud of what we have achieved over the past few decades and look forward to continuing to provide a premium service to the marketplace.”
