history

Born in Sweden, Gunnar Grosse founded KOMSA in 1992 together with Jürgen Unger, Norbert Hanussek and Jürgen Fuchs. The place of foundation was an old farm in Hartmannsdorf near Chemnitz , which Grosse's ancestors had managed. At the end of the 1990s, the KOMSA headquarters in Hartmannsdorf was built with an investment of over 12 million marks. 20 years later, on the company's anniversary in 2012, KOMSA had 1,300 employees. In addition, the company achieved sales of one billion euros for the first time in 2012. Gunnar Grosse and Jürgen Unger moved to the Supervisory Board in 2017 and handed over the management of the company to a five-person team, consisting of Uwe Bauer as CEO and the Executive Board members Steffen Ebner, Sven Mohaupt, Torsten Barth and Katrin Haubold. From May 1, 2020, Pierre-Pascal Urbon will be the new CEO of KOMSA AG. In the 2018/2019 financial year, the KOMSA Group generated sales of 1.2 billion euros and employed 1,450 people.

Spiegel Online reported in January 2010 under the heading The funniest warning of the year on three unsuccessful warnings. KOMSA warned webmasters of websites for allegedly misusing the KOMSA brand logo. In fact, however, it was a KOMSA-internal advertising blocker that replaced unwanted advertising within the KOMSA network with its own company logo. On the same day, the warnings were withdrawn and KOMSA apologized to those concerned.

In 2018, KOMSA and LogistikPlan won the German Logistics Award from the Federal Logistics Association . The following year, KOMSA was awarded the European Logistics Association's European Logistics Prize.
