Transportation support
Service with Significant Environmental Footprint
Brazil
Fundada em 25 de agosto de 1999, o contexto de criação da AXON está inserido na industrialização do Paraná, especialmente de Curitiba e Região Metropolitana, que fez crescer a demanda por serviços de transporte local, interestadual e internacional. Segundo a etimologia, o nome AXON deriva do latim, é um prefixo utilizado para palavras que significam eixo, conexão, ligação entre dois pontos. É o significado daquilo que o transporte se propõe a fazer, que é ligar dois ou mais pontos, criar uma conexão, ser um eixo de ligação entre clientes e fornecedores. As cores da empresa, os dois tons de azul e a prata, simbolizam respectivamente credibilidade e inovação, valores que estão arraigados em nossa cultura organizacional, enquanto a logomarca, duas elipses girando em torno do nome AXON, dá significado ao sentido original do nosso nome (eixo) e ao próprio serviço que prestamos (transporte).
