Ninatrans acquires transport and logistics company All Road International.

All Road International (ARI) is a family-run transport and logistics company based in Düren, Germany.

ARI is active in the FTL and LTL cargo market throughout Europe, with a focus on Germany, England, France and Spain. “This acquisition will enable us to further develop and significantly expand this strategically important distribution segment, strengthening our position in the market and taking advantage of new growth opportunities,” Ninatrans said.

Over the past decades, ARI has built up a stable and loyal customer base. Managing director Andreas Reul (80) will soon take a well-deserved retirement. Thanks to this transfer to Ninatrans, he is optimistic about the future of ARI. All Road International will continue to operate as an independent business unit. Michael and Nicole Reul, the founder’s children, and Amin Karrakchou will continue to have an active management role within All Road International.

ARI will make use of the expertise and innovations within the Ninatrans group, with the various transport entities also reinforcing each other operationally.

In addition, there is also a geographical match. According to Benny Smets, CEO of Ninatrans, this acquisition opens the door to interesting opportunities, such as the development of transport activities (Road Feeder Services) for the nearby airports of Cologne, Liège and Maastricht. “This acquisition is in line with our ambition to become a major European player in international time-critical transport.”

All Road International has about a hundred employees, has a fleet of about 70 tractors and 90 trailers, and has a warehouse of 4500m² with cross-dock facilities for customers.
