ABOUT US
Our History: From a university idea to a global benchmark
Handel was born in 2008 as a university project with a clear purpose: to coordinate exports from Colombia to Germany, in an environment of open and frank trade. Thanks to direct advice from German colleagues and successful pilot tests, that idea transformed into a brand that from its beginnings incorporated the efficiency and precision characteristic of German culture.
The name Handel, which means “trade” in German, reflects our essence and focus: international trade and logistics as engines to connect markets and generate opportunities.
Over these years, we have evolved under different names and structures —from Handel Agency Group to Handel Corporation S.A.S., consolidated since 2021— always strengthening our presence and adapting to global challenges.
