Nigel Paget, Copart’s UK Managing Director, believes the acquisition will enable the company to expand its UK presence and provide the capacity to respond to the company’s current and expected business in the UK.  The acquisition is also expected to reduce the company’s transportation costs and reduce its carbon footprint.  The company is anticipating January 22 to be the closing date of the acquisition.
