We are Mönig
We are Mönig. Your logistics specialist from the Sauerland.
It all began with the transport of milk and wood scraps. We brought the milk churns to the dairy in the mornings and the wood scraps to the chipboard plant in the afternoons. Those were the first jobs for the Mönig company.
Since then, the logistics firm has continuously expanded its know-how and its services. while always remaining in touch with its customers and their requirements. A strong economy needs a strong logistics partner. A partner who tackle any challenges and provides optimal support for the client’s business.
Making things possible and offering solutions that also lie outside the typical logistics area are our daily incentive.
