What Langebæk does

Langebæk is a Scandinavian management and logistics consulting firm specializing in supply chain optimization, warehouse design, network modelling, and end-to-end project implementation for enterprise clients across the Nordic region. Founded in 1977 and headquartered in Allerød, Denmark, the firm operates through three country-specific legal entities — Langebæk A/S (Denmark), Langebæk Consulting AB (Sweden), and Langebæk Consulting AS (Norway) — with offices in Allerød, Stockholm, Örebro, and Oslo. Service delivery spans six practice areas: Strategy Consulting, Logistics Consulting (warehouse, production, healthcare, logistics IT, fire & safety), Supply Chain Consulting (network modelling, transport & distribution), Technology Consulting (automation, robotics, AI), Sustainability Consulting, and Project Management (analysis, concept/design, tendering, programme management, testing/handover, ramp-up).

The firm generates revenue exclusively through professional services on a project-based, quote-negotiated model, with no proprietary software product, recurring SaaS revenue, or disclosed fee schedules. Go-to-market is sales-led, relying on thought-leadership content (insights.langebaek.com, YouTube, LinkedIn), industry referrals, and direct relationship management by country representatives. Documented client engagements span marquee Nordic enterprises across retail (Matas, Elgiganten, Lyko), food retail (Netto, Coop Norway, Diplom-Is), manufacturing (Carlsberg Ringnes, Arla, Bang & Olufsen), wholesale (Schou, Blue Water Shipping, Fleggaard, Elektroskandia), life science (Novozymes), and public sector (Copenhagen Airports, Herlev Hospital). Reported client outcomes include order-capacity doublings (Lyko 20k to 40k/day), 30% cost-per-order reductions (Fleggaard), 80% warehouse automation (Netto), 55% energy reduction (Copenhagen Airports baggage handling), and 30-year continuous engagement with Bang & Olufsen, signalling deep domain credibility and high client retention in the Nordic market.
