History
Niels Pagh Logistics originates from the haulier Niels Pagh Transport that was founded in 1960 by Niels Pagh. For more than 45 years, the company was the logistics partner of Løvens Kemiske Fabrik, and in 1980 the company started an export department with international groupage transports.
In 2000 Niels Pagh Transport’s management at the time decided to sell the export department. Michael Pagh and Flemming Jørgensen saw this as a perfect opportunity to start their own company by buying the export department, and so Niels Pagh Logistics was founded in the end of 2000.
The company has developed from being a small transport company with four employees and contracted trucks to being a big transport and logistics company with own trucks, trailers, and departments in six countries.
