MBS Logistics strengthens global presence with expansion to Switzerland

The MBS Logistics Group has announced it will open its first branch in Zurich, Switzerland, on 1 July 2023. This strategic move marks a significant milestone for MBS as it solidifies its commitment to meeting the needs of its growing customer base in the Swiss market while advancing global expansion plans.

The new Swiss entity is called MBS Logistics AG and is optimally situated at Zurich airport. MBS Logistics AG is equipped to offer a complete range of air, sea and road freight forwarding services. In addition, the branch will provide time-critical delivery services with MBS’s ‘Anytime’ product. Established in 2017, Anytime specialises in delivering a wide range of especially urgent shipments by land or air. From on-board courier services to charter options, the Anytime department tailors logistics solutions to specific customer needs, guaranteeing clients a quote within 15 minutes.

“Entering the Swiss market is a strategic move that aligns with our corporate growth objectives,” explains Joerg Roehl, CEO of MBS Holding. “With our hands-on, customer-centric approach, I am confident we will grow MBS’s market share and solidify ourselves as a trusted partner in the Swiss logistics industry.”

MBS Logistics AG will be led by Fabian Heil, who joined MBS on 1 June 2023 as Managing Director Switzerland. Having most recently served as Branch Manager at an international freight forwarder in Switzerland, Heil has extensive experience in the region’s logistics market. He will lead a team of logistics experts at the Zurich branch, who bring a diverse range of competencies and freight forwarding expertise.

“I am honoured to join MBS as Managing Director Switzerland and lead the Group’s expansion in the region,” shares Heil. “Having worked in the Swiss logistics market for many years, I have witnessed the immense potential and evolving demands of this dynamic industry. With our team of dedicated logistics experts, we are committed to delivering exceptional service, customised solutions and fostering strong partnerships with our clients.”
