VANGUARD Logistics Services has announced the promotion of Collin Rozario to the position of general manager air freight, South Pacific and Southeast Asia, effective immediately.
This promotion is an expansion of his current responsibilities as the air freight GM for the South Pacific region. In this new role, Mr Rozario is charged with developing the organisation's air freight operational and sales capabilities in Southeast Asia by leveraging the company's own and agency air freight networks.
Based in Sydney, Mr Rozario showed an aptitude for building strong customer relations and advancing operational growth in the successful development of the south Pacific air freight programme, his primary focus since joining the company in 2003. These new responsibilities will allow him to apply his experience to Vanguard's Southeast Asia network with his initial focus set on Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand, a company statement said.
Since beginning his career in air freight in 1983, Mr Rozario has held a variety of managerial posts, having been stationed in India, Nigeria, Dubai, Australia and New Zealand.
"We are very pleased with this development," said Jeff Lee, Vanguard's regional managing director for Southeast Asia and the Middle East. "Vanguard is ideally situated in the region and I am confident in Collin's ability to successfully extend our reach into air freight. We are counting on the support of Vanguard offices around the world to work closely with our region to pursue and develop every air freight opportunity."
Over the last few years, the neutral handling of air freight proved to be an important offering in Vanguard's service portfolio, developed to meet the growing needs of the freight forwarding community. "It is a profitable product for Vanguard as a whole," said Mr Lee. "Southeast Asia is a significant source of merchandise, machinery and a whole range of products for the rest of the world. We look forward to working with other Vanguard offices to make the most of this great opportunity."
Mr Rozario will continue to report directly to Zeljko Blazic, regional managing director, South Pacific, and work with Mr Lee on Southeast Asia.
