History

Beginning of a Success Story

In July 2000 Dirk Stecher set up the company "Air & Sea Stecher Logistics" in the port area of Mannheim. What startet as a one-man-business quickly developed into an ever increasing successful provider of customer-oriented logistics services in the fields of Air Freight, Sea Freight, Warehouse Logistics und Customs


Strategic Direction

The year 2003 marked the beginning of a strategic re-orientation, with general cargo and ground transportation being deleted from the portfolio. From now on the focus was completely put on the core business of Air and Sea Freight as well as Value Added Services. Together with our overseas agents the foundation was laid for strategic partnerships which today represent a global network.


Expansion

The concentration at air and sea freight was a good step in the right direction. During the following years the company has constantly been expanding. The increase in staff members and the need for more space resulted in the company's move to today's business location in the trade port of Mannheim.


The increasing complexity with regard to customs and safety resulted in a growing demand for services concerning customs. In 2008 a customs department was established for this purpose.
In February 2009 the company was granted the status as authorised economic operator (AEO) Customs and Safety. Today we are experts in this field and as such a most attractive partner in industrial and commercial enterprises throughout the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region.
