Ribeiro rejoins CEVA in South America

CEVA Logistics has appointed Nadia Ribeiro to the position of executive vice president and head of the South America cluster.
Ribeiro has extensive knowledge of the international freight and logistics market and global experience of many vertical markets in both commercial and operational roles. Ribeiro previously worked for CEVA for 13 years but spent the last three years at Kuehne+Nagel as managing director Brazil.
Ribeiro said: “I am delighted to return to CEVA. A major factor in my decision was the strength and solidity of its new operating model, the experienced management team driving it forward and the way those two things are differentiating the company in the industry.
“The current economic climate means the South American market is in a constant state of transition, but I welcome the opportunities this creates for the team I will lead ─ providing us with opportunities to grow the business here.”
She succeeds Richard Vieites who has moved to the company’s North American operations to become executive vice president of contract logistics.
