The story

The company traces its origins to 1873, when farmer Joan Joseph Fiege began a small haulage enterprise in Greven using a horse-drawn cart. Over five generations, Fiege expanded from regional transport into contract logistics, and consolidated its activities under the Fiege brand in the early 2000s as international operations grew.

In December 2020 the group divested its international freight forwarding division, Fiege Forwarding, to U.S.-based AIT Worldwide Logistics, refocusing on contract logistics and fulfillment. In April 2022 Fiege acquired World Fashion Logistics (Shanghai) to expand e-commerce and fashion logistics capabilities in Asia.

Sector practices include fashion and lifestyle, consumer products, healthcare and industry.

The company is a long-standing logistics partner to Zalando, operating fulfillment sites that serve multiple European markets. In 2019 Zalando and Fiege announced that Fiege would take over operations at Brieselang (Germany), and in 2020 they opened a 130,000 m² centre near Verona for Southern Europe.
