What deugro group does

deugro group, legally DEHOCO (Deutschland) GmbH, is a private freight forwarding and project logistics firm headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, with a claimed operating history exceeding 100 years. The company specializes in turnkey project logistics for large-scale industrial clients, handling heavy-lift, oversized, hazardous, and multi-modal cargo that requires route engineering, specialized transport, and coordinated execution across multiple geographies and transport modes.

The service portfolio comprises nine offerings grouped into three layers: core transport modes (Air Freight, Ocean Freight, Overland Transport) plus Project Freight Forwarding as the flagship; specialized capabilities (Specialized Services, Transport Engineering, Storage Solutions); and advisory/coordination services (Supply Chain Logistics, Consulting). The underlying technology stack is centered on integration with the third-party CargoWise Neo platform for shipment tracking and visibility; the company has not disclosed proprietary AI/ML systems, data assets, or platform-plus-modules architecture.

deugro generates revenue on a quote-based, project-by-project professional services model serving enterprise clients across nine heavy-asset verticals: Oil & Gas, Infrastructure, Mining and Metals, Petrochemical, Power, Wind, Sustainable Energy, Mobility, and Pulp & Paper. Distribution is exclusively through direct enterprise field sales across a global network of over 60 offices spanning EMEA, APAC, the Americas, Africa, and Oceania. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is tailored to project scope and complexity, with no platform or subscription-style revenue streams.
