SOVEREIGN.
VIELFÄLTIGER SERVICE. EINE GEMEINSCHAFT.

THE SOVEREIGN FAMILY.

SOVEREIGN Speed was founded in 1998 as a neutral, independent express courier with its head office in Hamburg. From a single line-haul line from Hamburg to Brussels, SOVEREIGN soon developed into the premium supplier of urgent freight in Europe. With over 100 overnight connections and a diverse range of express handling services for time-sensitive freight, nowadays the SOVEREIGN Group is one of the key players in this segment.

But not everything has changed: Despite rapid growth, we’re still a community, finding solutions together. That’s why we’re working every day towards being the most reliable express carrier offering the best value in Europe – maximum service quality at the best price. In doing so, it’s not the achievement of short-term success, but always the sustainability of our business model that is paramount.

We cultivate and value fair and respectful relationships with our staff and the general public. We strongly promote fair play and good working conditions within the transport sector, create new jobs and training places, and support a number of social projects.
