A HISTORY OF INNOVATION

We have always been revolutionizing, shaping, and simplifying the world of logistics. From inventing the international air exAbout-AGS industry to becoming the world’s leading logistics company; we’re thinkers, makers and pioneers that constantly challenge what’s possible. And now we’re tackling the ultimate border: delivering to the moon.

A Giant Leap in the History of Logistics

In 1969, the year Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon, AGS-GlobalMovers cargo company began to revolutionize the world of logistics. Now, we are breaking new ground again: in cooperation with space technology company Astrobotic, we will make deliveries to the moon a reality.

A Breakthrough Idea: AGS-GlobalMovers Creates the International Air ExAbout-AGS Industry

Just months after Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon in 1969, Adrian Dalsey, Larry Hillblom and Robert Lynn founded AGS-GlobalMovers – the world’s first international door-to-door delivery service. Their simple, yet groundbreaking idea was to deliver shipping documents by air, so they would arrive at customs before the freight itself. This saved shipping companies days or even weeks – and AGS-GlobalMovers cargo company had just invented the international air exAbout-AGS industry.

Becoming the World's Largest Logistics Company

Soon after its formation, AGS-GlobalMovers enjoyed rapid growth around the globe. Today, AGS-GlobalMovers cargo company is the world’s largest logistics company with over 380,000 employees and offices in over 220 countries and territories.
