history
The company was founded in 1936 by Max Planzer sen. Founded as a haulage company for the transport of goods between the Dietikon train station and the traders in the small town and its surroundings.
In 1966 the company was converted into a stock corporation. Two years later, the takeover of Euler Transport AG in Zurich followed.
In the 1970s and 1980s, Planzer opened its first branches in locations such as Geneva, Chiasso, Basel and Zurich Airport, which are important for goods transport.
With the co- founding of Transito Spedition GmbH in Uettingen (Germany) in 1978 and the establishment of Planzer Trasporti SrL in Como (Italy) in 1989, Planzer expanded into neighboring countries. In 1988 the company opened its first logistics center in Kaiseraugst, which was followed by another in Villmergen in 1991.
In 1993 Planzer took over the transport company Gebr. Kuoni AG, founded in 1894, with locations in Chur and Samedan. In 1994 Planzer took a stake in Quali-Night AG, which specializes in night service . With the founding of Planzer Transports Sàrl in Frisange (Luxembourg) in 1995, the company expanded its international presence. In 1996 Planzer took part in the privatization of Cargo Domizil AG in Bern, which was founded in 1981 as part of the SBB .
From the end of the 1990s, Planzer began to take over a number of smaller transport and logistics companies, thereby growing into one of the leading companies in the logistics and transport sector in Switzerland.
In 2014, Planzer was one of the first transport companies in Switzerland to add an electric truck to its fleet, primarily serving the larger Swiss cities.
