Through a partnership with senior management, the private investment firm has announced its majority stake.
Hudson Hill Capital, a private investment firm founded by Eric Rosen, has announced the acquisition of a majority stake in logistics franchisor InXpress Holdings Ltd.
Based in Manchester in the U.K., InXpress has a network of almost 400 franchisees in 14 countries, focused on parcel, freight, and delivery logistics services to SME customers through a dedicated software platform.
“We target companies founded by entrepreneurs and run by high-quality management teams with whom we can partner to bring the company to the next level of growth,” said Eric Rosen, managing partner of Hudson Hill. “InXpress presents a unique platform to continue to build the business globally and offer a wider set of freight solutions. We look forward to working closely and in partnership with existing management shareholders, Mark Taylor, Adam Thompson, Dustin Hansen, and the entire management team.”
Mark Taylor is the global CEO of InXpress and has been in the position since 2015. He has spent the past 20 years working with private equity companies from the U.K., U.S., and mainland Europe.
“Most SME shippers do not have access to a simple, centralized transportation shipping solution like InXpress,” said Taylor. “Nor do they have access to experts in shipping at a local level, which is part of the service InXpress offers.
“The InXpress platform offers one-stop shipping solutions that leverage our expertise, dedicated customer service, and entrenched relationships with multiple carriers to provide business-to-business and e-commerce customers choice, scalability, and highly competitive rates to simplify all of their shipping needs. We are excited to work with the experienced Hudson Hill team to enhance our business and consistently improve our service offering to our global customers.”
