A.P. Møller - Mærsk A/S is a Denmark-based integrated logistics and transportation company with global operations spanning ocean shipping, port terminals, inland logistics, air freight, warehousing, customs services, and supply chain management. The company is best known for its container shipping operations under the Maersk brand and operates within the global transportation, logistics, maritime infrastructure, and supply chain services industries.

Maersk serves multinational corporations, industrial manufacturers, retailers, e-commerce businesses, and small-to-medium enterprises across sectors including consumer goods, automotive, technology, chemicals, and energy.

The company traces its origins to 1904 when it was founded by Arnold Peter Møller and his father Peter Mærsk Møller in Denmark as a steamship operator. Over time, the company expanded from traditional shipping into energy, terminals, and integrated logistics services. In recent years, Maersk has shifted strategically toward becoming an end-to-end logistics provider, combining ocean freight with inland transportation, warehousing, digital logistics platforms, and supply chain integration. Its scale, extensive shipping network, ownership interests in critical port infrastructure, and long-standing global customer relationships are widely viewed as key competitive advantages.
