Company Name
When in 2000 DSV A/S acquired DFDS Dan Transport Group A/S, the new joint company’s activities continued under the name DFDS Transport, while the parent company remained De Sammensluttede Vognmænd af 13-7 1976 A/S, in 2003 formally shortened to DSV A/S.
Following the purchase of Frans Maas in 2006, the transport activities changed name from DFDS Transport to DSV, in order to create a unified global brand as well as to minimize confusion.

Famous quotes containing the word company:
“I do not mind if I lose my soul for all eternity. If the kind of God exists Who would damn me for not working out a deal with Him, then that is unfortunate. I should not care to spend eternity in the company of such a person.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“We noticed several other sandy tracts in our voyage; and the course of the Merrimack can be traced from the nearest mountain by its yellow sand-banks, though the river itself is for the most part invisible. Lawsuits, as we hear, have in some cases grown out of these causes. Railroads have been made through certain irritable districts, breaking their sod, and so have set the sand to blowing, till it has converted fertile farms into deserts, and the company has had to pay the damages.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
