Dachser has agreed to acquire Scottish logistics company Drummond Distribution, expanding its network with five locations between Glasgow and Edinburgh. The companies have not disclosed the purchase price. Drummond generated approximately £20 million in revenue in 2025 and employs around 175 people.

The acquisition gives Dachser a direct presence in the region, where it currently has no locations. As a result, Dachser said the transaction will strengthen its network coverage without creating overlapping structures. Drummond has worked with Dachser since 2008, connecting customers in Scotland with the company’s European Logistics network. The Scottish family-owned logistics company was established in 1927.
