CEVA Logistics has appointed Fuat Adoran to lead its Balkan, Middle East & Africa cluster.
Adoran served as managing director, CEVA Turkey, for the last three years. He will continue to be based in Istanbul and will report to company chief executive, Xavier Urbain. He has worked at CEVA since the company was established in Turkey in 2001.
In his new position, Adoran will be responsible for some 4,500 staff across nine countries.
CEVA said: “One of Adoran’s primary goals will be sharing the knowledge and expertise developed [in Turkey] to create solutions for customers in other countries within his cluster.
“He will intensify the collaboration between countries to provide new and service improvements to customers.”
Adoran said: “I see a number of promising business development opportunities for CEVA. This area comprises a diverse group of countries operating in a number of key vertical markets where we have particular expertise which we can capitalize on to drive forward and achieve our goals. Investment in verticals such as our project business in the Middle East will certainly continue.”
