Hellmann names latest Head of Business Development Rail Europe

Vedat Serbet has been appointed as Head of Business Development Rail Europe at Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.

In this newly created position, the logistics expert will further develop the international expansion of rail transportation, establishing new intermodal products and also expanding alternative connections between Europe and China.

To drive forward the strategic expansion of the international and regional rail segment, Hellmann has already appointed Marijo Pesic as Director Product Management Rail Europe and Matthias Köfler as Product Manager Rail East Europe. With Vedat Serbet, who after 13 years with Hellmann was most recently Head of Rail Freight EMEA at Dachser, Hellmann is now adding another expert to its European rail team. The aim is to increasingly offer customers internationally customized, environmentally friendly intermodal products with a focus on rail transport. At the same time, bypass routes are being established via the so-called Middle Corridor across the Caspian Sea in order to sustainably establish rail transport between Europe and Asia.

“At Hellmann, we are constantly developing our rail transports and Vedat has already played an important role in this context in the past. Therefore, we are delighted to have his expertise back on board. By expanding rail connections, we not only enhance our service offerings for customers but also make a significant contribution to reducing CO2 emissions,” says Jens Wollesen, Chief Operating Officer, Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.
