A.P. Møller – Mærsk A/S (Danish:[ˈɛˀˈpʰe̝ˀmølɐˈmɛɐ̯sk]), also known simply as Maersk (English: /mɛərsk/MAIRSK),[3] is a Danish shipping and logistics company founded in 1904 by Arnold Peter Møller and his father Peter Mærsk Møller.
Maersk's business activities include shipping, port operation, supply chain management and warehousing. The company is based in Copenhagen, Denmark, with subsidiaries and offices across 130 countries and over 100,000 employees worldwide in 2023.[2]
It is a publicly traded family business, as the company is controlled by the namesake Møller family through holding companies.[4] The company's 2023 annual revenue was US$51.1 billion.[2] In the 2023 Forbes Global 2000, Møller-Maersk was ranked as the 174th largest public company in the world.[5]
Maersk has faced several challenges, including the global economic downturn, a malware attack, and the Red Sea crisis.
