In 1999 Niels Winther & Co. together with strategic partners founded Scandinavian Auto Logistics AS to perform distribution of new cars as fully integrated intermodal supply chain from factory-to-dealer.
In 2001 a new multiterminal of 25.000 sqm was completed at the Port of Esbjerg, and in addition to distribution of cars SAL today offers a complete modern package of stevedoring, container and roro handling with direct access to 500 m berth, with 9.5 m water depth and 2 fixed roro ramps.
