For you in motion since 1971
Thurner GmbH has many years of experience in domestic and international transport. Through continuous improvement and lots of enthusiasm for the job, we have, from the very start, guaranteed that we will find the best way to satisfy our customers’ needs.
The company was founded in Vilpian in 1971 by Hermann Thurner. In those days Hermann carried out domestic transports throughout Italy with a single truck. His entrepreneurial spirit led to the company steadily increasing in size. It soon began to carry international loads too.
In 1992, the company changed into the Thurner Hermann OHG, at the same time, the founder took a step back from managing the company and handed the reins over to his sons, Othmar and Günther Thurner.
In 2001, a new cargo-handling center was opened in Vilpian. In addition to loading ramps and a large warehouse, the company also built its own workshop and a truck wash.
In 2006 the company took over another transport firm from Laas in the Vinschgau Valley. Following this takeover, the company headquarters moved to Laas. Alongside various offices, the new headquarters also had an additional workshop, a large lorry park and, like in Vilpian, a transhipment and interim storage area.
In 2011 the founder officially retired. Since then the two brothers, Othmar and Günther, have shared the leadership of the company. In the same year the company name was changed to the current “Thurner GmbH”.
