In 2001, GAL, an independent industry consortium, aquired CAT from Renault. GAL was subsequently acquired by VSI, Vehicle Services International AB (VSI), a 50:50 venture between Wallenius AB and Manuel Antelo in 2007. In 2009, Manuel Antelo became the sole shareholder of Groupe CAT, through his company Two Continents Logistics.
