SACO acquires MASTER and VIKING from S-P-S

SACO acquires MASTER and VIKING from S-P-S

SACO Airport Equipment and S-P-S International, both Netherlands-based, reached an agreement in June 2022 regarding the acquisition of SPS Master Equipment and SPS Viking by SACO Airport Equipment.

This strategic acquisition will allow further growth of the companies so increasing innovation and product development for the international market. The parties involved will continue to focus on their core competencies.

With the consolidation of VIKING based in the UK and MASTER Airport Equipment based in the Netherlands, SACO continues to grow as a leading international supplier of air cargo handling systems.

S-P-S has a good reputation in Europe in the field of sales, leasing and maintenance of airport ground support equipment (GSE) and maintenance of Cargo Handling Systems (CHS).

Both Jos Smeets, director of SACO and Paul Schmitz, director of S-P-S welcome this move.
