Acquisition expands service portfolio, expertise and network for customers in Europe and worldwide
Hampen, November 28, 2025 - The Danish family business Dantra Group becomes part of HOYER Group, one of the world's leading providers of logistics solutions for the chemical, gas and food industries. With the support of Dantra Group, HOYER Group is positioning itself as a leading player in the Scandinavian transport and logistics market in road and intermodal transport with representations in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Lithuania. Together, the companies consistently focus on sustainable growth and market leadership in Northern Europe, the strategic expansion of the international network and innovative services for existing and new customers.
With the acquisition of Dantra Group, one of the leading Scandinavian specialists for the transportation of liquid chemicals and accompanying depot and cleaning services, HOYER Group is further expanding its network in Northern Europe. The common goal is to offer customers real added value through an even closer transportation and service network and innovative logistics solutions. The integration of Dantra Group strengthens HOYER Group's position as a market leader in Northern Europe and a global solution provider for the industry and opens up new opportunities in the areas of gas logistics, specialty chemicals, carbon capturing, new energies and circular economy. "With the acquisition of the Dantra Group, we are consistently pursuing our strategic growth path through targeted investments and strengthening our network and our innovative power. Together, we offer our customers even more comprehensive and sustainable logistics solutions - especially in the future areas of New Energies and Circular Economy," explains Björn Schniederkötter, Chief Executive Officer of HOYER Group.
Both companies rely on innovative approaches to actively shape the challenges of the energy transition and the circular economy. Dantra Group's long-standing experience in the safe and efficient transportation of specialty chemicals and complementary services is an ideal complement to HOYER Group's existing portfolio.
"The integration into the HOYER Group gives our customers access to a global network and extensive expertise. Existing Dantra Group customers will benefit from a significantly expanded network in Europe and worldwide in the future. The integration into the HOYER Group provides access to new services, especially in the areas of intermodal transportation and overseas shipping. The combination of both companies' strengths enables tailor-made, sustainable and efficient logistics solutions for demanding industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals and specialty products," emphasizes Marc Jeel, Chief Executive Officer of Dantra Group. "At the same time, we maintain our values as a family business - safety, quality and sustainability remain the focus of our actions," says Lone Kjær, Chief Finance Officer of Dantra Group.
Both HOYER and Dantra are traditional family businesses that rely on a long history, strong values and a strong sense of responsibility towards employees, customers and the environment. The focus is on safety, sustainability and ethical behavior. Both companies are certified according to international standards and are committed to the highest quality and environmental standards.
"The merger with Dantra Group is a significant step for HOYER Group. We are not only connected to the Dantra Group by business goals, but above all by common values: responsibility, sustainability and highest quality standards.

As a freight forwarder trainee, I have been allowed to work very independently and with great responsibility from the very beginning of my traineeship.
My experienced colleagues provide me with good training and lots of support.
I find the job as a freight forwarding trainee both varied and exciting, as no two days are the same. You will also quickly see the results of your work.
I am challenged daily by customers to find the most optimal transport solutions for them. I find that exciting.
In addition to the many coordinating tasks, you will also learn a lot about the rules to be respected in different countries and become proficient in geography.
