MUMBAI, INDIA -�Media
OutReach - June 10, 2019 - DHL Global Forwarding, the leading international provider of air,
sea and road freight services, and a division of Deutsche Post DHL Group
(“DPDHL Group” or “the Group”), has appointed Niki Frank as Managing Director
for DHL Global Forwarding India.
Frank has spent the last seven years leading
global transformation initiatives for DPDHL Group and DHL Global Forwarding, making
major contributions to its pivotal growth strategy that saw the business revive
its performance and regain market share since 2016. Frank most recently served
as Senior Vice President for Global Business Strategy, and led the Certified
International Forwarder (CIF) program that ensures consistent service
excellence and cultural alignment across DHL Global Forwarding’s operations
worldwide.
“Niki has been instrumental in designing and executing the business
strategies that helped transform the division in 2016. He also oversaw the
development of the CIF program into a comprehensive learning, training, and
engagement curriculum that differentiates us at a global level,” said Kelvin
Leung, CEO DHL Global Forwarding Asia Pacific. “His experience in analyzing
market conditions and capturing their inherent opportunities will prove
extremely valuable to our work in India, one of our most promising yet also
most complex markets to date.”
In his new role, Frank will tap his experience to boost productivity and expand
DHL Global Forwarding’s business in India. Frank will report directly to Kelvin
Leung from Mumbai, India’s most populous city and a key logistics hub located
along the coast of the Arabian Sea.
“India continues to undergo rapid change across its industries and
broader economy, but we have no doubt that the country’s growth rates will
continue to outpace other major economies, which speaks to the tremendous
opportunities for forwarders to connect businesses to the global marketplace,”
said Frank. “Based on the Global Trade Barometer (GTB) Index produced quarterly
by DHL, India has the highest predicted trade growth of all GTB countries,
surpassing even the US, UK, and Germany, [1] a
result it has achieved consistently since the Index’s inception last year. “
Prior to joining the DPDHL Group in 2012, Frank was at Boston Consulting
Group leading teams across the automotive, industrial goods, and e-mobility sectors.
Frank holds a Masters in Economics from Maastricht University in the
Netherlands. A passionate mentor and workplace coach, he is fluent in German,
English, Spanish and French.
