In January 2009, DKSH, the world’s leading Market Expansion Services provider headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, acquired Dasico A/S, based in Birkerød Denmark, a specialty chemicals distributor to the countries of Scandinavia.

The acquisition of Dasico A/S strengthens DKSH’s Business Unit Performance Materials in Northern Europe and offers further growth potential for joint customers and suppliers.

Dasico A/S holds a 50% share in Agrofert-Norden A/S, a joint venture with Agrofert-Holding, the leading Czech supplier to the chemical, agricultural, and food industries.

Dasico A/S and Agrofert-Norden A/S have served the Scandinavian markets with great success for decades. Business partners in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden can now take advantage of DKSH’s extensive Market Expansion Services and global networks to help them grow their businesses in new and existing markets.

Since 1st January 2010 the company Dasico A/S has been renamed to DKSH Nordic A/S.
