Everwood Capital’s Transport & Logistics Fund has signed an agreement to acquire a majority stake in Altair Consultores Logísticos, a leading company in foreign trade consultancy and forwarding services, headquartered in Madrid with additional offices in Tenerife, Las Palmas, Barcelona, Sevilla, Cádiz, Gijón, and Irún. The acquisition is expected to close next January, pending approval from competition authorities.
As part of the Fund’s sectoral growth and integration strategy, Altair Consultores Logísticos, together with Maresa Logística—acquired by the Fund in 2024—will form a leading group in the Iberian Peninsula, with a strong presence in the Canary Islands. The group will specialize in forwarding and foreign trade consultancy, and is projected to achieve consolidated revenues of €160 million with a workforce of 500 professionals.
The new group will be led by Antonio Méndez, current CEO of Altair C.L., who will head a management team combining the talent and experience of both organizations. The selling party will remain involved in the project, supporting this new phase and actively contributing to growth, innovation, and national and international expansion.
With this transaction, Everwood Capital’s Transport & Logistics Fund now has stakes in 12 companies across six verticals: customs management, last-mile delivery, national cold-chain logistics, international cold-chain logistics, industrial express transport, and forwarding, reaching a combined turnover of approximately €400 million.
For Antonio Méndez, CEO of the new group, “Everwood Capital’s involvement will provide the resources and expertise needed to complete our digital transformation, align the company with ESG standards, and accelerate our growth and expansion into new markets. Together with Maresa Logística, we are creating a major forwarding group in the Iberian Peninsula, which will allow us to offer our clients more complete, efficient, and competitive services.”
Antonio Fernández Valle, former General Manager of Maresa Logística, will become the new National Director of Forwarding. “For us, the merger with Altair C.L. is a strategic milestone: by integrating our operational, technological, and human capabilities, we are creating a stronger, more agile, and competitive company, capable of expanding services, optimizing costs, accelerating innovation, and offering clients more comprehensive, higher-quality, and efficient solutions.”
Juan José Andrés, partner at Everwood Capital and head of the Transport & Logistics Fund, added: “The acquisition of this majority stake in Altair Consultores Logísticos aligns perfectly with the Fund’s strategy to invest in solid companies with clear organic and inorganic growth prospects, opportunities for digitalization, and high potential for horizontal and/or vertical integration. The merger with Maresa Logística allows us to create a reference company in forwarding and foreign trade consultancy, covering all links in the supply chain.”
