Hellmann Worldwide Logistics has appointed Natasha Solano-Vesela as Global Airfreight Director Perishables. In her new position, Natasha will be responsible for the strategic development of the “Perishables” division within the global airfreight product.
After the completion of the takeover of the Peruvian joint venture Hellmann Worldwide Logistics S.A.C. last summer, the segment, which is considered one of the growth drivers in the industry, is to be further expanded on a sustainable basis in the next few years.
With this appointment, Hellmann welcomes beck a true industry expert to the company, who has been active in the transport and logistics sector for about 25 years. Natasha Solano-Vesela has held various positions with international logistics service providers, in her most recent works, she has worked for Maersk and previously for almost twelve years for Kühne+Nagel as Global Director Business Development Perishables Air Logistics. Prior to that, she had already contributed her expertise in European sales at Hellmann Perishables Logistics (HPL), among other positions.
“Hellmann has been active in the perishables sector for over 20 years. Since then, we have continuously invested in the expansion of our network, so that today we are successfully represented in all relevant markets. We now hope to build on this solid foundation and expand our market share in the perishables sector. A key milestone on this growth path was the full acquisition of the Peruvian joint venture Hellmann Worldwide Logistics S.A.C. last year, which has enabled us to expand the service portfolio for our customers and generate further sustainable growth in Peru and the entire Americas region. We are very happy that we were able to bring Natasha Solano-Vesela back on board and have thus also created the personnel conditions to implement our growth targets together with her and our global team,”
