1997

Foundation of Optimax®

Start in Saalfeld with Focus on Great Britain

The company was founded by Elias Georges Daniel and initially specialized in groupage line services to and from Great Britain. In the following year, the first apprenticeship position was offered, and the number of employees grew steadily.

Growth and Training as a Foundation

The early success of the company made it possible to create a first apprenticeship position just one year after its foundation – a sign of sustainable growth and future orientation.

Sustainability

A Responsible Environmental Policy is an Integral Part of our Company Philosophy.

More and more trucks are rolling on Europe’s roads. Therefore, it is important to take responsibility here and successfully combine economic with ecological goals.

We achieve this through the consistent economical use of raw materials and energy, starting with our fleet, which consists exclusively of Euro-6 trucks, as well as regularly informing our employees about current environmental issues. This principle is lived in our company and actively supported by the entire team.
