LKW WALTER is celebrating its 100th anniversary and can look back on a century of success. With a strong focus on innovation and sustainability, the 100% family-owned company has established itself as a pioneering player in the European transport and logistics industry.
What began in 1924 as a small one-man haulage office in Vienna has since developed into a company of more than 1,650 employees from over 40 nations. This cultural diversity benefits not only the customer, but assures an open and dynamic corporate culture, recognised by ‘Great Place to Work’, among other awards. This anniversary will be duly celebrated with all employees.
The company initially established itself as a specialist in groupage transport. Almost 30 years later, the first international transport to Italy followed, which in turn heralded international growth. In 1984, the company entered the combined transport sector, which has been a central pillar of its success ever since. Since the turn of the millennium, LKW WALTER has placed particular emphasis on digital solutions. The business has undergone impressive developments, driven by the pioneering spirit that still characterises them today.
