Safmarine kicks off 2014 with another award
![L to R: Marcus Leaver (Hellmann Director Global Seafreight), Jost Hellmann (Managing Owner, Hellmann), Michael Amri (Hellmann Vice President Seafreight Europe), Steve Knight (Safmarine Global Head of Sales) and Sammy Reynaert (Safmarine Director Key Accounts)](https://biz-file.com/c/1401/169363.jpg)
The award - presented to Safmarine at an event held in Hamburg, Germany - marked the fifth consecutive year in which Safmarine has received awards from Hellmann.
According to Safmarine CEO, Grant Daly, "The consistent recognition of Safmarine as one of Hellmann's top three carriers is proof that the Safmarine team's hard work, customer care, passion and commitment is being recognised by Hellmann and we greatly appreciate their acknowledgement thereof."
Sammy Reynaert, Safmarine's Global Key Account Owner for Hellmann, said: "Safmarine's recognition as a 'top three global carrier' is particularly significant considering Safmarine does not have a global coverage, which is one of the parameters for the award.
"Furthermore, even though Safmarine is not active in the East-West trades - which happen to be Hellmann's biggest and fastest growing trades - our consistent, excellent delivery in the other trades in which we are active, combined with the excellent relationships we have with Hellmann at country and regional level, made it possible for us to retain our status as a key partner to Hellmann and be recognised as one of their top three carriers globally."
Hellmann's Vice President Seafreight OMEA (Oceania, Middle East, Africa), Oliver Nicolaysen, added: "This is a very good result which underlines a steady and ongoing partnership between Safmarine and Hellmann Worldwide Logistics. Together, we have managed to move forward and steer, jointly, through rough economic waters.
"My particular thanks to all the Safmariners who make the partnership work on a day-to-day level. Without them 'making the difference' we wouldn't have a track record of success."
Michael Amri, Hellmann's Vice President Seafreight Europe, expressed similar sentiments and also lauded Safmarine for its excellent Key Client Programme and relationships at country level.
"Together we go places and look forward to doing so in 2014, thanks to Safmarine's continued support," he concluded.
