Ingenuity is probably the quality that best describes Jeppe Petersen. A characteristically unassuming Jute from the industrious city of Esbjerg, he certainly appears to be both inventive and resourceful. Driven by his interest in innovation and optimization as well as a loathing of wastefulness, he chose to pursue a technical and commercial path early on. It was during his time at HTX that he and a team of his fellow students first envisioned and began development of an app-based business to counter household food waste. Inspired by insights gleaned from his part-time job at the supermarket chain Fakta, the team would go on to receive the Young Enterprise Award from Ernst & Young.
Emboldened by the experience, Jeppe went on to successfully found an internet-based start-up just days after reaching the legal age of 18. It was perhaps inevitable, then, that Jeppe would go on to pursue a career in engineering.
While completing a B.Sc. in Manufacturing Engineering at DTU, he joined Langebæk in 2017 to do a five-month internship as part of the undergraduate program. In 2018 he was taken on full-time as a consultant.
In connection with Langebæk opening an office in Oslo in 2021, Jeppe was expatriated to Norway. In September 2023, Jeppe returned to the office in Denmark.

A highly experienced and accomplished logistics professional, Johan joined Langebæk in Sweden, in the fall of 2018. Growing up in Västerås with a traditional small-town, working class background, instilled in him the quintessential Scandinavian character traits of independent mindedness, industriousness and a strong sense of community. Graduating from Gymnasium (upper secondary) he fell into a career in logistics via "the longest summer job anyone ever had", when he began working for ICA, one of Sweden's leading retailers, as a picker in a local warehouse. He would end up staying for almost 27 years, choosing to forego university in order to pursue on-the-job-learning and several inhouse training programmes. Besides, working for an organisation such as ICA presented him with new opportunities for both personal and professional development on a continual basis. An engaged team player with a burning curiosity for improvements, he would quickly advance from the local to regional operations and joined the national logistics unit in 1999, where he was responsible for several high-profile project and would become an integral figure in the professionalisation of logistics within ICA. As such, his focus shifted from the more technical areas of the logistics discipline towards management, in particular the areas of process development, change management and employee engagement. Moving to a consulting role was a natural next step and, as so often before, he seized the opportunity when it arose.
