Global freight forwarder founded 1872 in Vienna by Gottfried Schenker; long a Deutsche Bahn subsidiary, acquired by Denmark’s DSV in April 2025. The DSV takeover closed in 2025 at roughly 14.3 billion euros, ending the DB Schenker name.
DB Schenker was founded in 2007 and is headquartered in Frankfurt, Germany. Its main trade areas: Global forwarding.
Every DB Schenker box carries an ISO 6346 number: four letters (the owner prefix), six digits and a check digit. Enter the container number, the bill of lading or the booking reference and Navo24 detects which one it is.
DB Schenker is a forwarder or NVOCC, so the box usually moves on another line's vessel. Tracking by the DB Schenker bill of lading still works: we follow the underlying carrier and show one timeline.
DB Schenker's Standard Carrier Alpha Code is SHKK.
