What To Know: Safe & Green bought Giant Holdings for an undisclosed amount of cash and stock. Giant Holdings makes custom modular shipping containers.
The acquisition fits into Safe & Green’s long-term strategy of bolstering its design, engineering, sales, and project execution capabilities. At the time of acquisition, Giant Containers had over $5 million in projects under contract, with an additional $22.5 million in its pipeline.

“The current AI-driven trend is hungry for power, and we are well positioned to meet that demand using our own resources,” said Michael McLaren, CEO of Safe & Green. “Our streamlined vision is to control the supply chain from subsurface to end user, and with Giant Containers onboard, we now have a critical component to execute that strategy,"
