Company history

Fritz Lühmann founded an agricultural business in 1882, which his son Christian registered as Christian Lühmann GmbH & Co. KG . In 1925 Fritz Lühmann, Christian's son, took over the business and concentrated on selling lubricants. The great-grandson of the company's founder, Hans Lühmann, expanded the business to include customer service and the establishment of a petrol station network, thus laying the foundation for today's company. Birgit Lühmann, Hans's daughter, joined the company in 1983 to support her father and launched the Classic brand . During her time in the company, she also started a cooperation with Bernburger Mineralölvertrieb, which is now a 100% subsidiary of the company. Fritz Lühmann, Birgit Lühmann's brother, was brought into the company in 1993. In 2010 Fritz Lühmann's son-in-law, Lorenz Kiene, joined the company. In 2013 the company expanded the business to include logistics with the 50% subsidiary Lubricant Logistics Nord (SLN).
