Rotterdam, 1 June 2024
This expansion marks the first new opening of a new country office since the company announced its new strategy at the end of 2023. It reinforces the company’s commitment to strategic global growth and enhanced logistics and supply chain solutions.
The inauguration ceremony, held on the 16th of May, was officiated by Rik Pek, CEO of Broekman Logistics, and Martijn Tasma, Director International Freight Forwarding & Shipping. The event was welcomed by the consul-generals from The Netherlands, Türkiye and India, key industry figures, partners, and stakeholders who joined us in celebrating this milestone.
Strategic Expansion
Rik Pek, CEO of Broekman Logistics, emphasised the strategic importance of this new branch: “The opening of our Istanbul office is a significant milestone for Broekman Logistics. It aligns with our strategy to enhance our presence in growth regions of our key industries: machinery, industrial and chemical markets. Next to this, Türkiye plays a pivotal role in the Indian-European tradelane, one of Broekman Logistics’ unique propositions. We open a new office in Turkey because of the request of one of our larger customers to have our own presence there.” Martijn Tasma, Director International Freight Forwarding & Shipping adds: “This new office brings us closer to our customers in Türkiye. This branch will enable us to deliver top-tier logistics services and solutions customised to the regional market’s needs.”
Commitment to Excellence
Broekman Logistics is dedicated to maintaining its high standards of service excellence. “Our new branch in Istanbul will adhere to the company’s core values of reliability, efficiency, and customer-centricity,” says Abdullah Yesil. A team of experienced local professionals, who possess in-depth knowledge of the regional market, is ready to deliver customised logistics solutions to meet the unique demands of our clients in Türkiye and beyond.
Looking Beyond
As we look to the future, Broekman Logistics remains committed to innovation and expansion. The opening of the Istanbul branch is a testament to our ongoing efforts to enhance our service offerings and extend our reach. Presence in this country will act as a catalyst for improved logistics efficiencies and greater market connectivity across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Rik Pek concludes: “We are excited about the opportunities this new branch will bring and are confident it will significantly contribute to our growth strategy.”
