HISTORY 2016 - today
In order to strengthen its activities in Spain that had been on-going since 1968, the spin off company, L.W. Cretschmar Süd GmbH & Co. KG, was founded in 2016 by Oliver Rüter as the 4th generation of the CretschmarCargo family. CretschmarCargo Süd has a total of five locations, with branches in Coslada/Madrid, Castellbisbal/Barcelona, Irun in Spain and in Frankfurt am Main and Kornwestheim in Germany. The range of services includes the logistic network in Europe, the logistic network in Spain, the contract logistics, the air freight, the sea freight and the customs services.
In 2018, L.W. Cretschmar Española S.A. celebrated its 50th anniversary. What began in 1968 with the foundation of the company based in Coslada/Madrid has developed into an efficient structure with an extensive range of transport and logistics services.
Many years of experience in the Rhine-Ruhr region combined with membership in the leading European groupage cooperation led L.W. Cretschmar Süd to establish a further branch office in Germany in June 2020. With the location in Wuppertal, the service offer in the Rhine-Ruhr region was further expanded with a clear focus on selected Southern European markets with specialized employees and transport systems.
