OK Logistics GmbH & Co KG grew out of the OK Media/TELDEC corporate group and, with demand growing and profit increasing, was formed as an independent company.
OK Logistics initially established itself in the market as a service provider for the packaging and storage of CD/DVDs, and our company is now active in a range of different sectors in the areas of finishing, manual packaging, warehousing and distribution (pick, pack, ship).
We currently have over 25,000m² of warehousing capacity with storage for up to 16,000 Euro pallets available for our customers in our logistics and fulfilment areas in Neumünster and Nortorf.
Our personnel are available to carry out manual packaging, serialisation, display filling, pick and pack services, repacking and distribution activities, including a range of administrative tasks through to payment reminders.
In Autumn 2009 selected divisions of OK Logistics GmbH & Co KG move from Neumünster to the premises of the OK Media Group head office in Nortorf (Schleswig-Holstein) to satisfy the requirement for more warehouse capacity. The multi-storey premises contain various security zones and are ideally suited for anticipated further growth.
OK Media Group's CD and DVD production is concentrated in the main plant in Boizenburg/Elbe. Admin, customer services, purchasing and the head office are still based at our headquarters in Nortorf.
OK Logistics move in February 2008, and the new premises enable OK Logistics to double its capacity to provide warehouse space for over 6,000 Euro pallets. Our personnel are available to carry out manual packaging, serialisation, display filling, pick and pack services, repacking and distribution fulfilment.
June 2007: OK Media opens its Hamburg office where six key account managers now advise potential customers in areas such as games and edutainment, listening books, videos/DVDs, brand manufacturers and service providers. Incidentally, we are talking meanwhile about a total daily production of 350,000 CDs/DVDs.
A modern logistics and manual packaging centre is built in Neumünster/Schleswig-Holstein and OK Logistics GmbH & Co. KG is created with warehouse space for 4,000 Euro pallets.
OK Media manufactures almost 300,000 CDs and DVDs a day. Besides pressing the data carriers, OK Media also produces the relevant printed materials, prints the labels and packages the daily output.

The digital possibilities are becoming evident in the production of data carriers; the vinyl era is over and is making way for the age of the CD.
Teldec starts manufacturing music cassettes which, in 1967, was still carried out using home-made duplicating machines. Always at the cutting edge of technology, we subsequently used the latest digital masters and high-speed duplication facilities, allowing us to produce almost 180,000 cassettes a day.
The Telefunken and Decca companies merge to form “Teldec Records GmbH”. Initially we manufacture the first records on converted leather presses, but later use modern Toolex presses. At our peak, we were pressing, labelling and packaging up to 250,000 LPs daily.
We produced LPs for Udo Lindenberg, Drafi Deutscher, Hildegard Knef, Hans Albers and Caterina Valente among others!
