DFDS' Acquisition of DanTransport Approved by EU and FTC (SEA)

The present DFDS transport and logistics activities will be incorporated in DanTransport
Holding a/s, thus creating a transport and logistics company with 9,000 employees and a
turnover of DKK 15 billion.

DFDS Dan Transport, which is the name of the new transport and logistics company, has 230 own offices in Europe, USA, and the Far East.

The management of DFDS Dan Transport consists of Managing Director Ole Frie, who has been with DFDS since 1960, Executive Vice President Benny Rhe Hansen, with DanTransport since 1992, and Executive Vice President Ole Sehested, with DFDS since 1966.

The head office of DFDS Dan Transport will be in the present DanTransport domicile on Kornmarksvej in Glostrup, Copenhagen.

"Together the companies will be a major, powerful transport and logistics provider - the second largest in the Nordic countries - with the requisite strength and position on the market in Northern Europe. The new company will be extremely well-positioned in the restructuring now in process within the European transport industry," says Managing Director Ole Frie.
