About Benjamin

Expert when it comes to freight purchasing, freight rates, forwarding controlling & calculation, operational transport management, and distribution networks & projects.
Experience in freight purchasing and many years of expertise in national and international forwarding.
Learned the profession from the ground up as a forwarding agent and worked operationally for many years; further developed theoretical knowledge through part-time studies.

I enjoy making things happen and driving desired improvements. I particularly enjoy coaching young professionals and managers in the shipping sector and conveying the perspective of the freight forwarding market. I offer neutral and independent advice, without the interests of any single freight forwarding company or network.

If change is required - in my consulting approach, I fundamentally prefer to first implement an optimization path with existing logistics service providers. If this is not successful or a market analysis is desired from the outset, I use tenders to achieve the desired goal.
