Our history<\/span><\/h3>

Since its foundation in 1979<\/strong>, K. SCHMIED AG<\/strong> has developed from a traditional freight forwarder into an established Swiss family business<\/strong> in the container trade. Even in the early years, individual containers were sold in connection with transport operations. However, this area has grown steadily for more than 10 years and is now the central focus of our company.<\/p>\n

We have continuously developed our business with great passion and commitment, without losing sight of our roots in freight forwarding and logistics. Kurt Schmied had a significant influence on the company until the ripe old age of 80. His legacy and values live on in our daily activities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Our corporate governance<\/span><\/h3>

Peter Schmied<\/strong> has been managing the company since 2018. With over 30 years of experience in freight forwarding and logistics, he has successfully initiated and expanded the transition to container trading. He is supported by Urs Schmied<\/strong>, member of the management board, who is responsible for container trading, supply chain management and finance.<\/p>\n

The combination of container trading and transport expertise<\/strong> makes us a reliable partner for companies and private customers throughout Switzerland.<\/p>\n
