What Lagermax does

Lagermax Lagerhaus und Speditions AG is a privately held Austrian logistics group founded in 1920 and headquartered in Salzburg, operating from own sites in 15 countries with 4,050 employees and FY2025 turnover of €760 million. The group is organized around specialized subsidiaries: Lagermax Autotransport handles automotive logistics with 2,000,000 m² of vehicle storage and roughly 920,000 vehicles processed per year; AED (Alltime Express Distribution) runs overnight and same-day express services from 30 branches in Central and Eastern Europe, integrated with the ESLA cross-border alliance; LogBATT provides certified lithium-ion battery transport, storage and recycling (ISO 9001/14001, QSP, EfB); FRIKUS operates heavy-goods and container transport with a 220-vehicle fleet; MOL Cargo and LVTmoto specialize in motorcycle logistics across the Netherlands and Spain; Fashionet delivers textile logistics; Conzept builds modular container space; and Ambach Entsorgung handles disposal and recycling. Lagermax is also the operating shareholder of DPD Austria, the country's largest privately operated parcel service, giving the group access to DPD Group's 2.1 billion-parcel European volume.

The company's product portfolio spans transport (truck, rail, air, sea freight, break-bulk, dangerous goods, project shipments, container transport), contract logistics (warehousing, value-added services, e-commerce fulfillment, returns, trade-fair logistics, tyre logistics), warehousing (including hazardous-goods and electronic warehousing), vehicle modifications and pre-delivery inspection (PDI), industrial painting, customs clearance, and the myLagermax consumer-facing line of vehicle services, hobby storage, and private removals. Technology is conventional logistics IT: a Group-wide Track & Trace system, the AED Aftersales mobile app with Field Stock Location (FSL) structure for CEE, electronic PDI checklists, and GPS-based vehicle tracking — no AI/ML or autonomous systems are described in the source material.

The business model is asset-heavy and transaction- and contract-based. Enterprise field sales teams serve automotive manufacturers, dealers, importers and spare-parts buyers across 15 countries; contract logistics and warehousing generate recurring revenue; the DPD parcel channel adds high-volume B2B parcel flow. Pricing is quote-based across transport and contract-logistics lines and disclosed only for Austrian apprenticeship wages. Revenue is concentrated in Europe (Austria, Germany, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Serbia, Turkey, Spain), with private consumers addressed through a separate myLagermax entry point.
