A.P. Moller Capital has entered into an agreement to acquire a majority stake in Euroports Group, one of Europe’s largest non-containerised port infrastructure operators.
The investment will be made through a separately managed fund vehicle backed by A.P. Moller Holding. Following completion, A.P. Moller Capital will become Euroports’ majority shareholder, while SFPIM and PMV will retain their stakes.
Euroports operates more than 50 deep-sea and inland terminals across 10 European countries and China, handling over 70 million tonnes of bulk, breakbulk and liquid bulk cargo annually.
The group’s activities cover fertilisers, agribulk, forest products, metals, minerals, sugar and fruit, with around 3,000 employees across its network.
Euroports also operates Manuport Logistics, an independent freight forwarding business active in more than 20 countries. MPL will continue to operate under its existing brand and growth strategy.
“This transaction marks the beginning of a new chapter for Euroports,” said Frederic Platini, CEO of Euroports Group.
A.P. Moller Capital said the investment reflects the strategic importance of resilient logistics infrastructure and secure trade flows across Europe.
Kim Fejfer, Managing Partner and CEO at A.P. Moller Capital, said Euroports plays a critical role in moving essential commodities supporting European industry, food systems and manufacturing.
The transaction remains subject to customary regulatory and third-party approvals.
