It all began in 1976 when Leif Tullberg and nine independent trucking companies established DSV. The company operated as a cartage department for the owners and only handled contracting haulage and deliveries.
DSV Air and Sea Inc became to enter the international transport market in 1989 with the acquisition of two competing export companies followed by Samson Transport Co. A/S in 1997 and Svex Group AB in 1999.
These were important acquisitions as they altered the services and product focus as well as made the framework for an international future of the company.
In 2000, the biggest step in the company’s history was taken by the acquisition of DFDS Dan Transport Group, which led to a new era and strategy.
DSV Air and Sea Inc joined forces with Panalpina Welttransport in 2019, becoming the world’s fourth largest transport and logistics company.
