Staci, UK and Europe logistics specialist fulfilment provider, announced the company has been acquired by Belgian multinational postal operator bpostgroup.  

In a deal valued at £1.3bn, bpostgroup say the purchase is part of their strategy to accelerate its transformation and strengthen its position in the logistics value chain.

The partnership will enable bpostgroup to leverage Staci’s management of complex logistics flows and multichannel distribution, as the company say this will help to further enhance its service offerings.

Thomas Mortier, who has served as CEO of Staci Group since 1996, will now lead bpostgroup’s International 3PL division as CEO while also serving on its board of directors.

bpostgroup said he will play a pivotal role in integrating Staci’s operations with bpostgroup’s existing network, creating synergies that are expected to unlock new growth opportunities across global markets.

 Wayne Chapman, CEO of Staci UK, commented on the acquisition, saying: “bpostgroup's investment is a significant endorsement of our long-term financial success, growth, and track record of supporting and retaining clients.

“This partnership not only strengthens our ability to serve and expand our client base across the UK and Europe, but also opens doors to new markets, including Poland and Australia.

 “We’re excited to leverage the wealth of data, insights, and best practices that this collaboration brings. Together, we’ll drive even greater efficiency and deliver exceptional value to our clients worldwide, whilst growing our e-commerce packaging services, fuelled by opportunities with bpostgroup and their brands."
