Osnabrueck, July 13, 2021. The global full-service provider Hellmann Worldwide Logistics appoints Marc Wijnen as Global Head of eCommerce. In this newly created position, Mr. Wijnen takes responsibility for the further development of the eCommerce product globally, which falls under the Contract Logistics segment.

As an end-to-end provider of logistics services, Hellmann is already a business partner for customers all over the world. The company already offers one-stop shop customized solutions for supply chain planning and execution of customers’ entire eCommerce business. eCommerce continues to boom, further boosted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As an integrated e-fulfillment partner, both Business to Consumer (B2C) and Business to Business (B2B) are focus areas for the expansion efforts.
"The eCommerce market is extremely dynamic. To meet our customers' increasing demands for innovative solutions, we are currently setting up a 'Center of Excellence' with Marc Wijnen as global Head of eCommerce, in which we are pooling our know-how and applying it worldwide. At the same time, we are testing new approaches to solution design and constantly expand our talent and product offering. This is how we ensure that we can offer customers individually tailored services that have their finger on the pulse," says Volker Sauerborn, Chief Operating Officer Contract Logistics Hellmann.
