Duvenbeck Logistics

Duvenbeck is one of the leading logistics companies in Europe with a focus on the automobile, drinks and plastics industries. With more than 3,000 employees, the group is represented at 31 locations in eight European countries.

The foundation stone was laid by Bernhard Duvenbeck with the founding of his moving goods company in 1932 with a horse and cart. The growth of the company was initially steady but slow. At the start of the 90s, the company employed around 50 employees and had over two dozen lorries. When Thomas Duvenbeck took over the fortunes of the company in 1992 at the age of 26 and exploited the upheaval in the automobile industry for the benefit of the company, the growth curve shot upwards.
