SME forwarders in a 'very good mood' and getting into M&A mode

Rhenus Logistics has acquired Pesenti Trasporti & Logistica in the latest merger and acquisition deal in the forwarding market. This follows several other M&A deals this month. The consolidation among large forwarders is seen as an opportunity for SMEs, who are in a good position due to their performance during the pandemic. However, air carriers may not welcome this consolidation as they prefer a diverse customer base. SMEs are also considering selling due to their strong valuations.
