Logistics: Kühne+Nagel plans independent investigation into the Nazi era
For a long time, Klaus-Michael Kühne resisted a confrontation with Kühne+Nagel's history during the Nazi regime. Now the board of directors wants to change that.
The administrative board of Kühne+Nagel will examine the logistics company's role during the National Socialist era. A company spokesperson confirmed this, although no timeline has been set for the examination. Klaus-Michael Kühne, the long-time majority shareholder who passed away in August, had previously opposed such an examination. The board is expected to conduct an independent investigation in the coming months. Kühne+Nagel was founded in Bremen in 1890 and relocated to Switzerland in the late 1960s.
