Meyer & Meyer

What Meyer & Meyer does

Meyer & Meyer is a family-owned German fashion logistics provider headquartered in Osnabrück with operations across Europe and North Africa. Founded in 1900 and now led by fourth-generation CEO Maximilian Meyer, the company delivers end-to-end logistics services tailored to fashion, lifestyle, e-commerce, automotive, consumer products, and defense customers. Its service stack spans transport (land, sea, and air), customs clearance, contract warehousing and fulfillment, and textile finishing — including the WKS Textilveredlungs-GmbH quality assurance subsidiary acquired in 2018. Two branded digital solutions, &flow (circular textile economy) and &go (B2B and e-commerce fulfillment), launched in 2025 to extend the offering into recommerce and integrated fulfillment.

The operating backbone combines 16 owned and partner locations covering Germany, Bulgaria, Romania, Poland, Turkey, North Macedonia, Albania, Morocco, and Tunisia, supported by approximately 470,000 square meters of logistics space, 1,000 vehicles dispatched daily, and 2,500 swap bodies. Meyer & Meyer runs a multi-client warehouse management system for both hanging and lying goods, a PERFORM Transport Management tool, and AutoStore automated storage at key German sites. Sustainability is operationalized through solar generation (~920,000 kWh annually at headquarters), an e-truck pilot, an internally developed CO2 calculator, and ISO 14001 plus AEO certifications.

Revenue is generated through custom multi-year B2B logistics contracts priced per customer scope, with anchor logos including Schöffel, Betty Barclay Group, Marc Cain, Holy Fashion Group, Brax, Cambio, CASAMODA, AstorMueller AG, Leoni, and zLabels (a Zalando subsidiary with a dedicated 45,000 sqm Peine facility). Reported annual revenue is €250 million against a 1,400-1,800+ headcount. GTM motion is enterprise field sales into brands and retailers, complemented by trade show participation, LinkedIn-led content marketing, and a direct subsidiary network in Turkey and Bulgaria.
