Innovative, Global, Entrepreneurial Foodie I have enjoyed a 30 + year career within transport and trade, in which I have proven my strategic agility, business acumen and leadership skills across the world. Transforming, expanding and building businesses has driven me since I began my professional path. Alongside a lengthy entrepreneurial career, a consistent curiosity and years of travel have kept me at the forefront of development. This experience is adding value to all of my enterprises. I do also believe that sustainability should be a vital part of every companies DNA.

We then acquired 100% of Rungis Express AG a year later. In 2016, we had accomplished a network of approximately 650 employees and a turnover of +/- 150 Million Euro.
