The transaction includes crane and material handling services at the ports of Kaskinen, Kemi, and Oulu.

As part of the agreement, the personnel involved in Havator's port operations will transfer to Rauanheimo under their existing terms of employment.

"This acquisition is strategically very important for us. It strengthens our position as a nationwide port operator and supports our international growth [to Sweden] as well. The extensive equipment included in the deal enables us to serve our customers even better," Tero Kosonen, CEO of Rauanheimo, commented.

Jesper Krüger, Group CFO of BMS Stangeland, the Copenhagen-headquartered owners of Havator, also shared, "This divestiture unlocks value and enables us to concentrate fully on our core strategic ambitions - delivering world-class crane services and related solutions across our core markets in Norway, Finland, and Sweden. Rauanheimo is the right partner to take over these operations, ensuring continuity and future growth for both customers and staff."
