The Geis Group continues to grow: On July 1, 2025, we will acquire all shares in agotrans Logistik GmbH, which is based in Rodgau, near Frankfurt. This takeover will strengthen our activities in the economically robust Rhine-Main region and expand our presence in the IDS network.
agotrans is a family-owned business established over 50 years ago that employs around 120 people. It offers national and European general cargo transport, as well as part and full loads, contract logistics, and specialized automotive services.
agotrans is currently a member of the Online Systemlogistik cooperation. Talks on further collaboration have already begun.
The Frankfurt region has long been of great strategic interest to us, as it perfectly complements our road network. With agotrans, we have now found the right company to expand our presence in this region in a targeted manner.
Hans-Wolfgang Geis and Jochen Geis, Managing Partners
Dr. Thomas Wernig, who has led agotrans since 2018, will remain with the company until mid-2026. He will oversee the transition with our management team, ensuring stability and reliability for employees and customers. All jobs will be retained, and familiar contacts will remain available.
With the integration of agotrans, we are expanding our road portfolio and demonstrating our commitment to sustainable growth in the region. Geis has been active in the greater Frankfurt area since the 1980s. More than 300 Geis employees already work in the region at several contract logistics locations and in the Air & Sea Services division.
Another reason for the takeover is the reorganization of the IDS network. Following DSV's announced withdrawal, Geis will take over the IDS depot in Aschaffenburg. Simultaneously, the integration of the Krüger locations in Göttingen will replace the former DSV depot in Baunatal. With 13 of 54 depot areas, Geis will become one of the largest partners in the IDS general cargo cooperative.
The transaction is subject to approval by the antitrust authorities.
