What we know

SIL 2025 Limited has agreed to acquire the assets of Headlam Holdings B.V., Headlam B.V. and Dersimo B.V. in an asset sale transaction valued at 850 million euros. The deal, which was announced on 27 August 2026, involves a cash consideration for the logistics and transport business based in the Netherlands. This acquisition marks a significant shift in ownership for the target entities, as SIL 2025 Limited takes control of the operational assets previously managed by Headlam. The transaction structure focuses on the transfer of specific business units rather than a share purchase, allowing the buyer to selectively integrate key components of the logistics network into its existing portfolio.

The agreement represents a strategic move within the European logistics sector, enabling SIL 2025 Limited to expand its footprint in the Dutch market. By acquiring these assets, the buyer gains access to established infrastructure and operational capabilities that are critical for maintaining service continuity in the transport industry. The cash-based nature of the deal suggests a straightforward execution process, avoiding the complexities often associated with equity swaps or debt financing arrangements. This approach allows for a clean transition of ownership and operational control without diluting existing shareholder interests in the target companies.

The transaction has now been completed, finalising the transfer of assets from Headlam to SIL 2025 Limited.
