Dole Nordic AB, a subsidiary of Dole plc, has finalised the acquisition of Greenfood AB’s Fresh Produce division (GFP). The transaction is designed to scale the company's distribution capabilities and regional footprint across Sweden, Finland, and the broader Nordic market.
Strengthening Logistics Infrastructure
A primary component of the acquisition is a 26,500 m² fresh produce distribution facility located in Helsingborg, Sweden. Dole intends to utilise this site as a platform for targeted investment in next-generation warehouse technology.
The company plans to implement advanced automation, robotics, and integrated inventory management systems to improve operational efficiency and logistics capabilities within the region.
Strategic Objectives
The integration of the GFP business aims to bolster Dole’s existing supply chain and enhance its service offerings for customers across the Nordic countries.
Niels Klem Thomsen, CEO of Dole Nordic AB, stated that the acquisition allows the organisation to integrate a team with a strong track record of value delivery. Thomsen noted that the combined business will create a more robust foundation to support the growth of fresh produce consumption throughout the Nordic region.
This move aligns with Dole’s ongoing efforts to enhance its global distribution network and improve regional supply chain resilience through infrastructure investment and local market expansion.
