The story
In 2016, the company's New Zealand and Australia operations and all associated assets (including domains, contracts, and depots) were acquired by Aramex. As part of the acquisition by Aramex, most Fastway operations have been rebranded to Aramex in Australia and New Zealand. Branding of Fastway remained unchanged in other countries.
In 2022, London private equity company Elysian Capital took ownership of Fastway's Irish operations, becoming Ireland's Master Franchisee. In early 2023, South African logistics company City Logistics and Clearwater Capital partnered to purchase the existing Master Franchisee rights in South Africa.
In October 2025, Fastway Ireland's parent company Nuvion Group collapsed into receivership, resulting in Fastway ceasing operations in Ireland with the loss of 300 jobs. The Northern Irish and South African businesses are unaffected.
