New Members appointed to Management Board

The international logistics service provider EgeTrans, based in Marbach am Neckar, Germany, reorganized its top management. As a strategic response to the company’s dynamic growth over the past decades – and with the clear goal of further enhancing customer focus – the management team of Peter, Bettina und Marcel Steinmüller was expanded by six authorized officers. 

This step marks the transition to a collaborative leadership model and is also an essential part of the company’s long-term succession planning.

“We are convinced that the complex challenges of the future can best be mastered as a team. Our top priority has always been – and remains – to provide our customers with the best possible service. By expanding the Management Board, we are setting the course for a stable and successful future. It is a clear commitment to distributing responsibility more broadly so that decision-making processes remain short despite the increase in the number of employees.”
Peter Steinmüller, CEO

The new members of the Management Board will help steer EgeTrans’ global activities in the future – across borders and continents: 

• Dominik Braun (Chief Operating Officer)
• Christian Dietl (Chief Digital Officer)
• Thomas Leusch (Chief Supply Chain Officer)
• Michael Rittmaier (Chief Sales Officer)
• Melanie Stuermer (Chief Financial Officer)
• Kathrin Woelper (Chief Human Resources Officer)

“For the new Management Board, we have selected long-standing employees who bring experience, in-depth expertise, and a strong connection to our corporate culture and values. Together, we will manage the company as a team and thus remain “small enough to care” – even as we continue to grow – for our customers and for our employees.”
Marcel Steinmüller, President

Founded in the 1950s, EgeTrans has developed into a successful logistics provider with around 250 employees worldwide since its acquisition by the Steinmüller family in 1992. Significant milestones included the establishment of branches in the United States (2001) and Mexico (2017), the expansion of the air freight segment, and the creation of new business units such as the Digital Innovation Unit (DIU) and the ET Academy for internal development.

Next year will see another milestone. The expansion of the company headquarters in Marbach am Neckar in Germany. The construction project “Marbacher Tor” (Gate to Marbach) which includes commercial space in the form of additional 120 jobs and 20 employee apartments, is scheduled to be completed by summer 2026 at the latest. An important step for EgeTrans to enable further growth. 

As a specialist in ocean freight, air freight, and supply chain solutions, EgeTrans supports both medium-sized industrial companies and large corporations in the mechanical and plant engineering, automotive, and agricultural technology sectors. The focus on tailor-made solutions, digital processes and personal communication shall will remain a unique selling points in the future. With the new Management Board, EgeTrans will continue its international growth course consistently while maintaining its high quality and service orientation.
