deugro Canada welcomes logistics heavyweights
Continuing its steady growth path and further enhancing its local client proximity, deugro Canada bolstered its Vancouver team. The freight forwarding and project logistics specialist is banking on the experience of Laszlo Szentirmai and Mike Weiner to boost its Canadian unit.
Laszlo Szentirmai has joined the Vancouver, BC team in the role of Project Manager. With nearly 20 years of logistics experience, starting in 2005, he brings a wealth of knowledge. Five years were spent in project operation at Transera / C.H. Robinson, and most recently, over seven years as project manager at Panalpina / DSV. At deugro Vancouver, Laszlo Szentirmai will be responsible for projects and clients across a wide range of industries, including LNG, renewables, mining, construction, emissions/carbon capture, power generation, and oil and gas.
Mike Weiner has joined the team as Sales and Business Development Manager Canada, based in Vancouver, BC. His career began in the mid-1980s with operational roles in air freight, ocean freight, and trucking products for various freight forwarders in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Over the past 15 years, he has focused on business development with Agility, JAS Projects, and most recently Pan Projects / DSV in a western Canadian business development role targeting the mining, oil, gas, energy, power, wind, and EPC sectors. In his new role, Mike Weiner will leverage his extensive experience to service existing clients and develop new and emerging markets, business potential, and client segments.
“The strong experience of Laszlo and Mike will complement deugro’s specialized project logistics offerings to the unique Canadian market. With additional locations and staff based in Calgary, Toronto and Montreal, this expansion to the west coast will support existing operations, as well as focus on new projects and recent wins in the region and nationally from coast to coast to coast,” said Kelly Merath, Country Manager – Canada, deugro.
