Scan Global Logistics acquires Gelders Forwarding, Advection Logistics

Scan Global Logistics (SGL), an ambitious global logistics provider, expands its European structure and network by purchasing two firms in the region.

Meanwhile, Advection Logistics (Advection), a full-service logistics company, opens the first SGL office in Hungary, providing a foundation for regional expansion.
