History
Pioneering spirit, vision and courage
The founders of Militzer & Münch showed pioneering spirit when they laid the basis of the company with rail transports more than 140 years ago. The same applies to the experts of Militzer & Münch who developed the air freight business in the middle of the last century, and in the following decades, established groupage transports by rail and truck to the Middle East.
As early as in the 1930s, Militzer & Münch became the freight agent of major ocean carriers and airlines. In 1949, Militzer & Münch was appointed official IATA agent. This was followed by the opening of new branches, which were crucial for the expansion of the air and sea freight business, such as the branch office in Hamburg and the first air freight center at Frankfurt Airport, which Militzer & Münch opened in 1962.
Militzer & Münch was among the first logistics companies to venture into the emerging markets of Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and China for its customers, and to successfully establish its services there. Today, with undiminished enthusiasm, Militzer & Münch continues expanding its service portfolio, and ventures into new domains of logistics.

Strategy
We are committed to our promises
A supply chain is only as strong as the people who organize it. That’s a fact we at Militzer & Münch are well aware of. And that’s why rely on our unique network of regional experts and local specialists worldwide.
Family-owned business with long tradition
Militzer & Münch is a family-owned business, founded in Germany over 140 years ago. Through all this time, the requirements of our customers have been the engine that drives us to create ideal transport solutions by road or rail, by air and sea.
Specialist for challenging markets
Thus, we became pioneers: in the 1960s, we were the first to handle overland transports to destinations in the East. And we were among the first to systematically develop the freight forwarding business between Europe, Central Asia and China.
This know-how makes us THE logistics experts for today’s challenging markets. We pledge to get your goods safely to any destination worldwide, be it by air, by sea or overland. No matter where to: we know the way. Worldwide, we operate from over 100 locations in over 30 countries from North Africa to China.
