About Crowley
Crowley Ventures
Committed to Partnership
For more than a century, Crowley has been at the vanguard of movement at home and abroad. Today, we’re committed to driving movement forward by providing unmatched logistics, government, marine, wind and energy solutions, driven by technology and with safety and sustainability entrenched in our DNA.
We’re grounded in the belief that progress requires partnership. For us, that partnership is more than just a bottom line; it’s the collective sum of our parts with the same goal to carry the world.
Investing in Growth
Our 130-year track record of success across our five main business units – Logistics, Government Solutions, Shipping, Wind and Fuels – has laid the groundwork for continued expansion in the future. Acquisitions and venture investments are a core part of our growth strategy and unified commitment to extraordinary service. Our financial strength and cash flow generating capabilities afford us strategic flexibility, and we intend to continue to acquire businesses and make investments to achieve our long-term growth and earnings targets.
As part of this strategy to supercharge growth, we have established a dedicated investment arm to execute acquisitions, divestitures, and minority / growth investments across business units.
Where We Invest
We are specifically targeting M&A opportunities and minority growth opportunities in transformative companies which complement our existing business lines and in the following areas:
Digitally-Enabled Logistics
Companies who enhance transparency, create efficiencies, and reduce frictions in the flow of products and services around the globe through the deployment and integration of technology throughout the value chain, on both land and sea.
Fleet Decarbonization
Companies which advance Crowley’s ongoing initiatives to decarbonize shipping through smart asset design, installing carbon recapture technologies, and exploring the cost and performance viability of alternative fuels.
Green Supply Chain
Companies aligned in our goal to be the most sustainable and innovative maritime and logistics solutions company in the Americas through emission reduction across modes of transportation and exploring offshore wind and other renewable energy sources.
Government Services
Companies who support the government with high-touch professional services and advanced supply chain and transportation solutions tailored for the mission.
