MEKI
History

MEKI is part of the worldwide concern ABD that operates within the fields of road surfacing, chemicals, and manure systems
Established 1929, MEKI belongs to the chemicals division. Today the chemicals division is the most important intermediary and distributor of raw materials, ingredients, and chemical products in Denmark. The chemicals division is subdivided into 4 business units (cf. figure 1).

The purpose of this subdivision of the organization is to make each business unit small and big at the same time: Small in the sense that, given a focus on a restricted area, specialization and profound knowledge is attained; big in the sense that it is possible to make use of the knowledge of, e.g., quality control, logistics and the like, of the organization as a whole.

MEKI belongs to the industrial chemicals unit. A total of 4 specialized departments belong to this industrial chemicals unit, one of them being the main office in the city of Horsens. Together with the main office, MEKI is the biggest of these special departments. This is mostly due to the very extensive storage and draught capacity of MEKI.
