Constellation Cold Logistics enters Danish market with agreement to acquire Agri-Norcold A/S

Carlos Rodriguez (Constellation's CEO) said: "The addition of Agri-Norcold to our network opens up strategic opportunities in Denmark and strengthens Constellation's leading position in the Nordics, where we already enjoy strong partnerships and growth opportunities with our customers in Norway and Sweden.

"Agri-Norcold's long standing relationship with Danish Crown and several other meat, dairy, seafood and packaged food producers positions the company well for future growth. Denmark is one of the largest net exporters of food products in Europe, and this transaction will allow us to continue to grow with new customers, as well as many others that we already serve across the Constellation network."

Thorkil Andersen (CEO, TA-Logistics A/S, and Chairman for Agri-Norcold) said: "I'm very pleased that Agri-Norcold is joining Constellation. The Agri-Norcold team's customer service focus is very much aligned with Constellation's responsiveness and culture, and they look forward to benefiting from the capabilities of a pan-European network. TA-Logistics companies look forward to collaborating with Constellation, both within Denmark and in other operating geographies where Frode Laursen and other companies of the group provide transportation and other value add services."

Jan Nielsen (Agri-Norcold's MD) said: "I would like to congratulate our employees for the great company that they have built over the years. They should take great pride in what we have achieved together, and they can look forward to greater opportunity and growth as part of the wider Constellation network. I would also like to thank our customers for the trust they place in us every day, I am excited to be able now to provide them with solutions across Europe, and to extend our services in Denmark to existing Constellation customers. Constellation and Agri-Norcold share common values and I truly believe that we can achieve great things together."

Constellation is Europe's leading independent cold storage and logistics provider with approximately 700,000 pallet positions of temperature-controlled capacity and a presence across seven European countries, excluding the Agri-Norcold acquisition. www.constellationcold.com
