Since August 1, Johanna Birkhan has joined the management of the VTL Vernetzte-Transport-Logistik freight cooperation. She will drive the future project VTL Next together with Andreas J\u00e4schke, the spokesperson for the management. At the end of 2021, Birkhan will become the sole managing director after J\u00e4schke leaves VTL.<\/p>\n

(Fulda) Since August 1, Johanna Birkhan has joined the management of the VTL Vernetzte-Transport-Logistik freight cooperation. Together with Andreas J\u00e4schke, the spokesperson for the management, she will advance the comprehensive future project VTL Next.<\/p>\n

“VTL and I are very pleased that we were able to win Ms. Birkhan as my successor; her standing fits perfectly with the VTL Next project,” says VTL CEO Andreas J\u00e4schke. The goal of this project is to accelerate the digital transformation within VTL and align the network for future requirements. “Only if VTL embraces the challenges of change and implements new technologies quickly and efficiently can the company be successful in the long term. With the establishment of the Next project, the corresponding framework has been set,” says Johanna Birkhan.
\nInitially, Ms. Birkhan will tackle this task as co-managing director alongside VTL managing director Andreas J\u00e4schke. When Andreas J\u00e4schke leaves VTL at the end of 2021, she will take over as sole managing director.<\/p>\n

Back After a Short Detour<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The 34-year-old undoubtedly brings the necessary tools: after all, the freight cooperation is familiar territory for her. After Johanna Birkhan successfully completed her studies in transport management and logistics in 2011, her path led directly to VTL. Nine years ago, the dynamic logistics expert began her professional career here as a member of the management, and just four years later, she received power of attorney.
\nIn 2019, Birkhan switched to the parcel service provider GLS, where she was responsible for international operational line and network management. “After an exciting year in the international parcel sector, I am looking forward to returning to the medium-sized freight business and gladly accept the challenge of leading VTL into the future and shaping it in the long term,” says the newly appointed VTL managing director.<\/p>\n

About VTL Vernetzte-Transport-Logistik GmbH<\/strong><\/h5>\n

VTL was founded in 1998 and is a leading freight cooperation and provider of Europe-wide logistics solutions. Based in Fulda, VTL connects over 130 medium-sized cargo companies into a comprehensive and intelligent transport service supported by state-of-the-art IT.<\/p>\n

The cooperation benefits from the good collaboration of its approximately 140 employees in Fulda as well as the solidarity among all system partners. The central HUB in Fulda and the regional HUBs North and West are connected by fast direct services and transport freight in a 24\/48-hour cycle overnight.<\/p>\n

With the system partners “on-site,” VTL offers the individual service of a regional provider, plus Europe-wide logistics solutions from a comprehensive network. Thus, a wide range of regional services in more than 39 countries becomes a comprehensive supply chain offering.<\/p>\n

Quality, trust, helpfulness, and fairness are the most important success factors of the network.<\/p>\n

With 1.3 million shipments and a total weight of around 491,292 tons, the cooperation achieved a turnover of 64.8 million euros in 2019.<\/p>\n
