- In recent years, we have collaborated on various projects and thus know each other's strengths and opportunities to expand the potential that the acquisition provides, and the acquisition is based on a desire to strengthen the company's position in chartering and stevedoring, says Michael Frihagen, CEO at H. Daugaard.

Peter Grau - owner and founder of Grau Shipping - says that he is very happy that the two companies have been able to agree to merge and that both he and the other employees look forward to becoming part of the shipping team at H. Daugaard.

- We have good chemistry and there will be many tasks where we can complement each other and develop new solutions, says Peter Grau.

- H. Daugaard has its own companies in the Czech Republic and Luxembourg, storage facilities at the ports of Kolding and Vejle and a warehouse hotel in Vamdrup, and we are now expanding our port activities, as we believe that the ports will grow in the future - with more goods via ship and rail, says Palle Mogensen.

All three directors conclude by saying that it is: "business as usual".
