How Musketier Started
Musketier B.V. was originally founded in 2003 by Paul Giesen, Eddy Egging, and Vincent Smit, after working together at the same customs broker for twenty years. The name Musketier, the Dutch word for musketeer, represented the fact that the three of them started the company, but it also represented the three transportation modes: Road, Air and Sea.
In 2009 Musketier became AEO certified and grew to a highly experienced team of eight people. They will now join Customs Support.
