JAS is thrilled to welcome Multilogistics S.p.A. and Setoa S.p.A., which officially join the group on May 27 and July 10, respectively, following the acquisitions led by JAS Jet Air Service SpA.
With the acquisition of Multilogistics, JAS strengthens its logistics presence in Europe and is preparing to expand its offerings to customers in the increasingly in-demand vertical sector of Contract Logistics. Multilogistics is known for its highly specialized and customized customer solutions, thanks to the deep experience that has always distinguished it in the logistics sector.
Multilogistics is based in Liscate (Milan), not far from the original offices where JAS began its journey and which over the last four decades have led it to significant global growth. The success achieved is certainly the result of choosing to collaborate and select companies that, like Multilogistics, invest in their employees and maintain high standards in customer services.
"We are thrilled to join forces with JAS Jet Air Service and the JAS Worldwide Group, a recognized leader in the global logistics industry," said Massimo Mirizzi, President and CEO of Multilogistics. This partnership offers tremendous opportunities for our team and our customers. By combining our local expertise with JAS Worldwide's global reach and innovative, sustainable solutions, we can offer our customers added value in their business and excellent service."
With the acquisition of Setoa S.p.A., JAS further expands its business into new markets, adding West Africa in particular among the territories now covered directly by its services. Thanks to Setoa's entry into the group, JAS's offer now expands to Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Cameroon, Ghana, Gabon, Congo, Mali and Burkina Faso.
"Both of these acquisitions represent an important step in our growth strategy and I am confident that they will create new synergies that will better meet the needs of our customers with an advanced range of logistics solutions expanding our global footprint with these new markets," said Leonardo Baldi, Regional Vice President and CEO of JAS Italy.
Since 1997, Setoa has boasted considerable experience in a complex and peculiar market such as the African one and can offer a highly customized service to customers. Its expertise gained over almost thirty years in this niche market, combined with JAS's experience and vast worldwide network, will contribute to enriching the offer to customers with complete and innovative solutions.
"The acquisition of Setoa Italia S.p.A. by the JAS Group marks an important evolution in the expansion and strengthening of our global capabilities," said Massimo Boccadelli, CEO of Setoa Italia S.p.A. "This combination will allow us to offer our customers an even wider range of innovative services and solutions, consolidating our leadership in the international shipping sector in West Africa. The collaboration between Setoa and JAS will redefine the market standards in Africa, opening up new prospects for growth and success worldwide."

JAS Projects and JAS Sweden are proud to share an exciting achievement in heavy transport, executed deep in northern Sweden near the Polar Circle. This unique project involves the movement of oversized cargo through challenging winter conditions, where temperatures plummet as low as minus 15 degrees Celsius.
The cargos dimensions are impressive:
Transporting such massive loads requires meticulous planning, technical expertise, and flawless teamwork—all of which were on full display as our team worked tirelessly to ensure safe and efficient delivery through the icy terrain.
Luiz Dos Santos, Project Coordinator at JAS Projects, accompanied the operation and shared his firsthand experience. For Luiz, this was his first opportunity to be on-site for a heavy-lift transport, and it proved to be both thrilling and educational:
"A thrilling mission in the far north. I accompanied the heavy transport from start to finish through the icy winter landscape of northern Sweden. It was an extraordinary and impressive experience to see the required precision and flawless teamwork with my own eyes. The execution, as well as the planning, are significantly more complex than they often appear from the desk. So, it was all the more helpful to have experienced the entire process firsthand."
This operation is a testament to the team's commitment to excellence, even in extreme environments. From intricate planning to navigating unpredictable Arctic conditions, the success of this transport highlights our ability to deliver solutions tailored to every challenge.
