At EGT Express, we celebrated 31 years since the company was founded.

This February, we celebrated the 31st anniversary of our company’s founding. This milestone is not just a date on the calendar for us, but an opportunity to reflect on the journey we have taken together with our clients and partners.

It all began in 1995. At a time when the logistics market in the Czech Republic was still taking shape, we specialized in customs services. Our expertise in customs matters became a fundamental pillar of our company and enabled us to understand the complexity of international cargo transportation from the very beginning. This foundation later allowed us to develop comprehensive logistics services for our customers.

Since 2009, we have expanded our operations to Eastern markets by launching our first services from the Czech Republic to the CIS countries, further strengthening this expansion in 2010 with the opening of branches in Bulgaria and Lithuania. Our growth was also reflected in our facilities – in 2015, we moved to a new logistics center, which enabled us to increase our capacity and handle more complex projects for our clients.

In recent years, we have focused on connecting more distant destinations. In 2019, we launched a regular air service to Central Asia, and since 2021, we have been operating groupage lines between the EU, China, and Pakistan.

Thirty-one years on the market primarily represent stability for us and the ability to adapt to the evolving needs of global trade. If you are interested in a detailed overview of the development of our routes and key milestones, you can find our full history here.
