LEMAN Welcomes New CEO René Bach Larsen   We are excited to announce that Rene Bach Larsen will join LEMAN as our new CEO, effective November 1st.   René brings a wealth of experience in the #freightforwarding industry, having held leadership positions at GEODIS across Europe, Asia, and most recently, as Managing Director of North America.   With his extensive international expertise, René will be returning to Denmark to lead #LEMAN into the future, driving our global growth.   René shared his excitement about the new role, saying: "I am very excited to join LEMAN and contribute my international experience to the company’s global growth over the coming years. LEMAN is an ambitious company with important plans on the agenda, and I look forward to being part of that journey. I am particularly enthusiastic about LEMAN's people-driven approach and its core values of Respect, Quality, and Commitment, which I am dedicated to nurturing as we move forward together."   We are looking forward to welcoming René to the team and having him at the helm as we continue to strengthen and expand our business. His experience will be invaluable as we pursue our strategic goals and build on the strong foundation we've established.   At the same time, we would like to extend our thanks to Michael Schrøder for his leadership as interim CEO during the past months. Michael will continue in his role as CFO, ensuring a smooth transition as we look ahead to an exciting future.   Join us in welcoming René to LEMAN 🎉🎈 #NewCEO #BigAmbitions #ProudlyDrivenByPeople

Ongoing US East and Gulf Coast Port #Strike: LEMAN’s Response and Support for Customers The strike affecting ports along the US East and Gulf Coasts continues to cause significant disruption, with 36 major ports from Maine to Texas now closed. This action, which began at midnight on October 1, is due to ongoing disputes over wages and job security between #dockworkers and the United States Maritime Alliance. At #LEMAN, we are closely monitoring the situation and staying in constant dialogue with all relevant stakeholders to ensure we remain informed and proactive. Our priority is to minimize any #disruption to our customers' supply chains, and we are exploring every possible alternative to keep goods moving smoothly during this challenging time. What We’re Doing: • Exploring Alternative #Shipping Solutions: We are actively rerouting shipments through West Coast ports, Canadian ports, and air freight options where possible. • Customer Communication: Our team is working diligently to keep our customers informed with timely updates and providing guidance on navigating these disruptions. • Collaborating with Carriers and Ports: We are in direct communication with carriers, ensuring we can manage surcharges, delays, and potential solutions to mitigate the impact on your operations. As the strike’s duration remains uncertain, we will continue to provide updates on the situation and are here to support you with any questions or concerns. Our goal is to ensure your business remains as unaffected as possible. Thank you for your continued trust in LEMAN. Graphic: Børsen / The National Association of Manufacturers

Cristian Barrientos rediscovering life through LEMAN's sabbatical program:     "As the Digital Sales & Pricing Manager at LEMAN's Miami office, my day-to-day work involves strategizing and optimizing our sales processes. In the beginning of 2024, I began a transformative 2-month sabbatical, eagerly anticipated in the preceding weeks.   The initial phase was spent at home, where I cherished precious moments with my wife, nurturing our bond in familiar surroundings. This time allowed me to reconnect with my personal life and enjoy the simple joys of being at home.   My adventure then took flight with a trip to Colombia to reunite with my family. Accompanied by my sister, I then traveled across Europe, visiting Austria, France, Spain, the Netherlands, and Germany, each offering unique cultural experiences.   I am deeply grateful to LEMAN for the sabbatical leave, which rejuvenated my spirit and enriched my life. This time off allowed me to return to work with renewed energy and a fresh perspective."   Read more about Christian's adventure during his sabbatical leave here: https://lnkd.in/dUFR24B7
