TNT was founded by Ken Thomas in 1958 in Australia, who in 1946 began delivering goods by road across the continent. The abbreviation TNT stands for Thomas Nationwide Transport. With the purchase of the aircraft in 1980, the express delivery service TNT became the first company on the planet capable of delivering urgent shipments between continents.
Seeking a monopoly in international postal services, the Dutch logistics company KPN acquired TNT in 1996, which was a subsidiary until 2011, when it again became an independent division of TNT Express.
In the spring of 2015, the American international delivery company FedEx bought TNT Express from its Dutch competitor. Today, in many countries, you can still find branded vehicles and couriers in TNT uniforms, but the legal entity was liquidated in 2021.
