The company has appointed María Jesús Fernandez as Branch Manager for the new office. The Spanish freight forwarder has 25 years of extensive industry experience and most recently headed the Madrid branch of Manuport Logistics.
The opening of the new branch means Röhlig Logistics is now represented in three Spanish cities; Barcelona, Bilbao and Madrid.
Commenting on the move, Albert Mora, General Manager at Röhlig Spain, said:
“With Madrid-Barajas airport, Spain’s largest air cargo hub, and a dry port linking the city to Spain’s main seaports, Madrid boasts excellent infrastructure and is the Spanish region with the fastest import and export growth. In addition, Madrid has successfully diversified its industry mix in recent years, attracting many multinational companies from various sectors such as IT, pharma and healthcare, automotive and chemicals.”
