Centaur makes logistical move for mag and shows

By Press Gazette

By Alyson Fixter

Centaur has acquired Logistics Manager , a monthly magazine for
logistics professionals, and the two Logistics Link exhibitions that go
with it.

Centaur paid £500,000 to Seven Kings Publications.

The
magazine was launched in 1994, is published ten times a year, and has a
combined annual turnover with the exhibitions of £0.9m.

The acquisition is Centaur’s first in a new sector since the company was floated on the stock market in March last year.

Graham
Sherren, Centaur chairman and CEO, said: “We are very excited at the
prospect of being involved in the logistics and transport community and
see huge potential for both the magazine and the exhibitions.

“Serving
new communities is a key part of Centaur’s growth strategy and
Logistics Manager and Logistics Link fit the bill perfectly”.
