GEFCO has launched a Mission Control Centre (MCC) in Amsterdam to manage global Time Critical Solutions.

The MCC will monitor all time-critical shipments booked on its IT system and act as a single point of contact for global customers to provide real-time monitoring updates on their worldwide emergency shipments.
GEFCO Freight Forwarding global TCS director Klaas Sybrandy said: “With all time critical shipments being monitored closely by our excellent and experienced MCC team, we will ensure that we always find the fastest possible solution for all planned and unplanned emergency shipments for our customers.”
The MCC team will be led by Vincent Karbet and Chantal van Loen. Karbet has worked in the freight forwarding industry for over 15 years, including executive roles with DHL Same Day.
Van Loen was responsible for TNT special services in The Netherlands for over 10 years.
