Who we are
Your experienced partner for innovative logistics solutions – from reliable continental transportation to worldwide overseas shipping.
The ILG Innovative logistics group was founded in Linz in April 2012 as a joint venture between our managing directors Wolfgang Klepatsch and Peter Neuhuber and Fr. Meyer’s Sohn, one of the world’s largest independent ocean freight forwarders.
Fr. Meyer’s Sohn (GmbH & Co.) KG – short FMS –, established in 1897, operates a global network in over 25 countries with more than 1,000 employees. For over 50 years, our founders, Wolfgang Klepatsch and Peter Neuhuber, have been at the forefront of Austrian logistics, gaining an extensive and unparalleled depth of industry expertise. Together with our strong partner FMS we are able to draw upon over 100 years of experience and practical know-how.
Our corporate values – expertise, innovation, reliability & customer focus – characterize our daily work and our service approach. We continuously set new standards with customized, innovative logistics concepts that are precisely tailored to the needs of our customers. Thanks to our expertise, we master even the most complex logistical challenges and develop solutions that meet the highest quality standards.
