GBA Logistics acquires Silver X Group and Bow Distribution and Warehousing

GBA Logistics has bought Silver X Group and Bow Distribution and Warehousing, to solidify its position as a key player in the UK and European markets.

With its mission to ‘Drive towards a Sustainable Future’, a commitment to excellence and a focus on personalised customer service, GBA says that the similar ethos of the Silver X Group made it a natural fit.

GBA intends to keep the well-known brand names of Silver X and Bow, and the existing management teams led by Gavin Burgess, managing director and founder.

The merged companies will work together on leveraging their strengths for mutual growth, says GBA.

“We are thrilled to welcome Silver X and Bow to the GBA Logistics family," said David J Birkbeck, chairman and founder of GBA.

"Their longstanding commitment to customer service excellence and their reputation for integrity perfectly complements our own values. This acquisition brings together two successful family-owned companies who both have big ambitions for the future”.

Burgess added: “I am very excited about the future as part of GBA Logistics. GBA’s wide range of services and excellent European network will turbo charge Silver X’s growth plans.”
