SLS Group rebranded as Life Couriers

(Kelsterbach, December 31, 2022) SLS Group, an international group of highly specialized logistics operators, rebrands the business as Life Couriers, due to the predominant life science and healthcare focus of the group, which also leads the future acquisition strategy.

Over the past two years, SLS Group has shown a significant track record in acquiring additional businesses, which added significant value to the Life Science and Healthcare proposition of the platform. With Associated Couriers (2020) and HealthEx (2021) joining the group, the leading provider for radiopharmaceutical deliveries in the United States emerged. Being a leader in the global stem cell business for over a decade already, SLS Group subsidiary Ontime Courier (Germany) expanded their product range and geographic reach by the recent acquisition of TRANSCO Berlin Brandenburg GmbH. As an overall result, more than 80% of the business operated by SLS Group companies today stem from life science and healthcare related logistics service segments.

To express this current and future expansion focus of the business more clearly, management and shareholders decided to go for a rebranding, replacing SLS Group by Life Couriers as the new brand name that conveys the core positioning of the platform. Thomas Lang, CEO of Life Couriers: “We are following a precise strategy focusing on life science and healthcare logistics segments where excellent services performed by dedicated entrepreneurial teams generate significant value-adds to our customers. It is a straightforward move to express this mindset also in our brand name, so everybody understands what we are doing.”
