In Germany

& across Europe

Curious
for
more

And that starts anew each day. Our passion for logistics means we can plan with you on equal terms. We do it.

As a family company we like to look after our customer contacts personally, face to face and are always approachable. We don't use call centres, preferring to act and react quickly, flexibly and without complications. Give us a call if you want to deal with professionals directly. We care. In the region and across Europe.
The right direction
On course for more. An upward trend. Even more staff dedicated to your needs. Even more innovations in which we invest. We don't just talk about it. We simply do it. Your trust is what drives us.

Ulm – made for greatness

Blick von Neu-Ulm nach Ulm auf die Donau und die Altstadt von Ulm

City with vision and quality of life: Science City Ulm (Baden-Württemberg) / Neu-Ulm (Bavaria)

Over 180,000 people from over 140 nations make Ulm / Neu-Ulm what it is: one of the dynamically growing economic regions in southern Germany. Tradition, technology and the industry mix of over 10,000 companies turn the trade fair city into an important economic location. The people of Ulm believe in bringing hard work and quality of life together in one place. City festivals, a charming old town, the open mentality of the people and the proximity to the mountains make this city loveable and liveable. Ulm is visionary, hungry and never done. Just as we are.
