Major changes are underway at the Kieserling Group. On 1 January 2013, the long-standing, Bremen-based enterprise will merge with the owner-operated Indian logistics service provider Compass Ocean Logistics to form Compass Logistics International AG with 40 branches in 18 countries. The new company will have dual headquarters in Bremen/Germany and Dubai/UAE.
Up until now, the Kieserling Foundation, set up by the owner Karsten Kieserling who died in 2006, has held a majority shareholding in the Group. The Group’s business activities include ground transportation, contract logistics and project development. To date, the new partner company Compass Ocean Logistics has been particularly active in the Middle East and in India. Its business is focused on freight forwarding (sea & air), ground transportation, project logistics, customs clearance, warehousing, tank container leasing and tank operations connected to a global agency network.
