About us

Headquarters

The Hub of a Global Group

Our headquarters is located in Middelfart, the very city where Torben Østergaard-Nielsen took over the company and set the course for what USTC has become today.

Over time, USTC has evolved far beyond being a holding company. It now functions as the central hub of our conglomerate, enabling the Group to work seamlessly together. From the USTC Headquarters, we provide strategic guidance and operational support to our ownership, executive management, and every company within the USTC Group.

Our headquarters bring together key Group functions that strengthen collaboration and drive performance across the organisation. These include Group Communications, Group HR, Group ESG, Tax, Mergers & Acquisitions, and Risk Management, all working in close partnership to ensure we remain aligned and well-positioned for the future.

Our operations

Empowering our companies, creating synergies, and securing the future

The USTC Group is made up of several strong, independently managed companies, each excelling in its industry, each grounded in the stability and values of our family ownership.

This business model gives our companies the freedom to lead and grow while standing on a shared foundation of long-term thinking, business acumen, and responsible leadership. From marine fuel and tanker shipping to logistics, IT, and sustainable energy, the diversity of our activities is matched by the consistency of our ownership approach. Each company is different. What connects them is how they are backed and the principles we carry forward together.
