LONDON, 15. juli 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- InfraRed Capital Partners («InfraRed»), en ledende internasjonal mid-market forvalter av infrastrukturinvesteringer, har fullført oppkjøpet av GulenSkyss, en norsk ferge- og ambulanseskipseier og operatør. InfraRed, på vegne av et InfraRed forvaltet value-add fond har kjøpt 100 % av virksomheten fra grunnleggeren. Med sin etablerte tilstedeværelse på vestkysten, tilbyr GulenSkyss betydelige muligheter for vekst.0

GulenSkyss eier og driver ekspress- og bilferger, losbåter og ambulansebåter, i henhold til langsiktige konsesjoner med offentlige motparter. Gjennom sin flåte på 15 fartøy, inkludert ett under bygging, gir GulenSkyss tilgang til kritiske beredskapstjenester og pålitelige transportforbindelser, noe som gjør den til en integrert del av norsk transportinfrastruktur.

Med sin langvarige tilstedeværelse, samt deres omdømme for pålitelighet og erfarne ledelsesteam, er GulenSkyss godt posisjonert for videre ekspansjon. I de siste årene har virksomheten bygget ut flåten og flyttet inn i nye regioner og forskjellige deler av fergemarkedet. I desember 2024 vant GulenSkyss et betydelig tilbud for driften av bilfergeforbindelsen mellom Breistein og Valestrand. Nylig sikret selskapet også bilfergeruten Solfjellsjøen–Vandve i Nordland i Nord-Norge.

Norges 100 000 km lange kystlinje er fragmentert med fjorder og øyer, noe som gjør vei- og jernbanetransport vanskelig; ferger er ofte det mest effektive og kostnadseffektive alternativet. I 2023 fraktet ferger nesten 50 millioner passasjerer* rundt Norge, og stod for de kritiske koblingene mellom øyer, fjorder og fastlandsbyer.

Sven Stubican, partner ved InfraRed, kommenterte: «Dette er en spennende investering i en etablert virksomhet med betydelig potensial for ekspansjon, støttet av infrastrukturegenskapene vi ser etter. GulenSkyss sine nøye utformede fartøy oppfyller lokale behov, og gir uvurderlige tjenester for innbyggere og lokalsamfunn. Vi ser frem til å jobbe med det eksepsjonelle ledelsesteamet, og utnytte vår erfaring med andre porteføljeselskaper, for eksempel Vancouver Island Ferries i Canada.»

Frode Sønstabø, administrerende direktør i GulenSkyss, kommenterte: «Vi er utrolig stolte av å samarbeide med InfraRed Capital Partners. Dette oppkjøpet gir oss en unik mulighet til å styrke vår posisjon innenfor markedssegmentene våre. Med støtte og ekspertise fra InfraRed Capital Partners er vi godt rustet til å videreutvikle potensialet i GulenSkyss. Vi ser frem til å samarbeide tett med InfraRed Capital Partners for å levere enda bedre resultater for våre kunder og ansatte. Dette er starten på en spennende reise for GulenSkyss»

Per Strand Vold, grunnlegger av GulenSkyss, kommenterte: «Vi er glade for å ha funnet en ny partner for GulenSkyss med ambisjoner om å videreutvikle selskapet, og vi er sikre på at InfraRed Capital Partners kommer til å ha et godt samarbeid med GulenSkyss fremover.»

Dette er den andre investeringen gjort av InfraRed i Norden de siste 12 månedene, etter en investering i Voltan Energy, et desentralisert energiselskap basert i Finland.

InfraRed benyttet Pareto Securities som finansiell rådgiver og Thommessen og A&O Shearman som juridiske rådgivere. GulenSkyss' grunnlegger og tidligere eier benyttet Nordea Corporate Finance, en del av Nordea Bank Abp, filial i Norge som finansiell rådgiver og Simonsen Vogt Wiig som juridisk rådgiver.
