Singapore-grown expertise anchors ComfortDelGro as it ramps up overseas operations
Derryn Wong
TRANSPORT giant ComfortDelGro (CDG) is plotting a course for growth by increasing its footprint overseas and venturing into adjacent businesses, but it is a strategy that will continue to be anchored by its operations in Singapore.
Over the past 12 months, CDG has made notable moves abroad.
In 2023, it announced the proposed acquisition of Australian taxi operator A2B for A$165.1 million (S$145.7 million). In February this year, it acquired CMAC Group, a UK-based ground-transport management and accommodation network specialist, for £80.2 million (S$135.4 million). (*see amendment note)
