CWT has acquired two Singapore-based warehousing companies – Trident Districentre Pte Ltd (TDPL) and OCWS Logistics. Both companies will become wholly-owned subsidiaries of CWT.
CWT has completed a conditional sale and purchase agreement to acquire the entire issued and paid-up share capital of TDPL: 75% equity stake from Neptune Orient Lines (NOL) and 10% from Interlocal Exim and 15% from IFS Capital Ltd.
