The Pattyn Family Hands Over the Company to Its CEO, Who Has Been Leading the Group Since Summer 2017
The Pattyn family has transferred ownership of their company to its CEO, who has been at the helm of the group since the summer of 2017.
“Our collaboration with him has been constructive, pleasant, but also quite challenging from day one. In 2018 and 2019, we made significant investments in the professionalization of the group. This year — even amid the COVID pandemic — we’re reaping the benefits of those efforts. For the family, a buy-out felt like the right step, and with the CEO, continuity was ensured for the further development of what we can truly call a life’s work since 1967. We will now focus on industrial real estate,” explains former owner Bart Pattyn.
According to new owner Serge Gregoir, not much will change within the company following the takeover.
“We will mainly continue doing what we’ve done over the past three years: becoming the logistics challenger in Europe.”
