What Stohr Logistik does

Stöhr Logistik GmbH is a privately held, family-owned German logistics and transportation company founded in 1962 and headquartered in Rottenacker, Baden-Württemberg, with additional locations in Ingoldingen and Hecklingen. The company provides integrated logistics services to industrial enterprise customers across multiple verticals including construction materials, automotive, aluminium, plastics, metal goods, wood, and mechanical engineering. Its service portfolio comprises three core pillars: Spedition (national and international LTL and FTL freight transport), Lagerlogistik (75,000 m² of warehousing, order picking, and shipping preparation), and Spezialtransporte (heavy/oversized transport for machinery, production plants, and sensitive cargo). Named customers include Novelis, PERI, and Handtmann Systemtechnik.

The company's technology stack centers on a digital logistics management system featuring On-Time-Tracking (real-time shipment visibility), ERP/TMS/SCM integration into customer systems, automated vehicle status messaging, photo documentation for quality assurance, and AI-supported route planning for fleet optimization. Distribution is sales-led via direct account management with fixed contacts and customer-specific solutions, supported by trade fair presence (LogiMAT), regional employer branding, and content channels including a customer magazine and social media.

The business model is transaction-fee based for transport and special transport, and managed-services based for warehousing and value-added logistics, with B2B customer-specific quotations (no public pricing). Revenue is not publicly disclosed. Stöhr operates a fleet of 400+ vehicle units (160+ owned), employs 360+ people, and is in the midst of a green logistics transition — including a 2.5 MWp photovoltaic system, 600 kWh battery storage, 400 kW E-LKW charging infrastructure, and the first Mercedes eActros 600 electric heavy-duty truck. The company is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 50001:2018, was recognized as a TOP 100 Innovator in 2026, and is preparing third-generation family succession.
