JAS has successfully completed its acquisition of International Airfreight Associates B.V. (IAA), a provider of air, ocean and road freight services headquartered in the Netherlands. This milestone follows the signing of the share purchase agreement (SPA) announced in December 2024 and marks the official integration of IAA into the JAS network.
“The acquisition of IAA strengthens the JAS global logistics portfolio and access to key markets, particularly in the time-critical perishable goods sector,” said Marco Rebuffi, CEO and President of JAS. “We are proud to welcome IAA’s talented highly experienced team to JAS and are looking forward to delivering excellent service to our customers together.”
Jur de Graaf, Managing Director of International Airfreight Associates, added, “Joining JAS allows us to expand our services globally and continue delivering high-quality logistics solutions for our customers. We are confident that our partnership will create new opportunities for our employees, partners and clients.”
IAA is one of the top-three IATA forwarders at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, with warehouses and operations in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. IAA specialises in managing time-sensitive shipments of perishable fresh goods and livestock, as well as multimodal general cargo.
The acquisition strengthens JAS’s global service portfolio by expanding its presence in the European logistics market and beyond. Together, the JAS and IAA teams will enhance customer value through an expanded service offering, operational excellence, and an even broader global network.
