From Greece to the world, and from the world to Greece – the Greek affiliate of the world’s leading logistics company sets its aim high to continue catering to its global network. Stefanos Agiopoulos, Country Marketing & Sales Manager at DHL Global Forwarding, Freight Greece, speaks about the transformative period in the Greek logistics sector, staying abreast with the rapidly-changing life sciences regulatory environment, as well as the upcoming priorities in Greece.
The logistics industry in Greece is undergoing a transformative period as China's biggest shipping company, COSCO Shipping, gained a foothold of Greece's biggest port in Piraeus. The basic premise of the deal is to make Greece an ideal gateway to the rest of Europe, with its strategic geo-positioning. Do you think this latest development sets the Greek logistic sector to a path of expansion?
"Piraeus is becoming the gateway to Europe. In light of the acquisition, it is important to note that Piraeus is no longer a Greek port, but an international one."
