150 years ago we started an incredible journey. And we still are on our way.

Since our first shipment in 1872 the world of logistics has changed dramatically. Our People at DB Schenker, have always been major drivers for these changes. And they are still today.

So we are continuously working on new technologies, services and ideas to keep the supply chains of our customers moving in the most efficient and sustainable way.

By doing so, we meet our customers increasing demands for sustainable logistics and focus on reducing the overall environmental impact of our services, to make everyone’s life a little bit better.

We´re still on the way, but the best is yet to come.

That´s what we call Elevating Lives.
