Kuehne + Nagel Container Tracking

Kuehne+Nagel (KN), one of the world leaders in logistics and freight forwarding, was founded in 1890 in Bremen, Germany. With a presence in over 100 countries and more than 1,400 offices worldwide, the company employs approximately 81,000 people. Kuehne+Nagel offers integrated logistics solutions across sea freight, air freight, road and rail transport, and contract logistics.

A key strength lies in its digital innovation—the company developed its own advanced tracking platform, myKN, providing customers with real-time visibility for sea and air freight shipments. Notably, Kuehne+Nagel operates one of the world’s largest air freight networks by volume and is a top player in sea freight, handling over 4.5 million TEUs annually.

In 2021, Kuehne+Nagel acquired the Asian logistics company Apex International, significantly strengthening its position in cross-border e-commerce and air freight capabilities in the Asia-Pacific region. The company is also committed to sustainability, aiming for net-zero carbon emissions by 2030 through initiatives like using sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and carbon-neutral sea freight options.

Despite its massive scale, Kuehne+Nagel remains a family-owned business, with the founding family maintaining a majority stake through the Kuehne Foundation, ensuring long-term strategic stability.
