In 1900, Paul Lehmann founded his freight forwarding company in Copenhagen. At that time, Paul was 24 years old, but through job training both in Denmark and abroad, he already had a great insight into the industry. In 1900, freight forwarding was not a widespread profession, and most established companies were primarily engaged in customs clearance. But the innovative founder chose to focus on forwarding, thus laying the foundations for 120 years of thriving logistics and transportation business. Through hard work and frequent trips abroad, he managed to connect with several foreign and domestic partners and business relations. Thereby, the foundation was cast for the company that should later come to span most of Europe, the United States, and Asia.
