Building effective transport plans

Anne-Sophie has over 20 years of experience in the freight forwarding industry, having worked in Singapore, the Middle East region and France for a French freight forwarder. Her international experience brings knowledge and expertise in cultures, trends and the market.

Having been responsible for global accounts and working with worldwide procurement teams on more than 30 trades and routes, Anne-Sophie will be introducing her worldwide network to the team.

“What I have learnt from my global experience is that agility, resilience and solid partnerships are key to building up performant transport plans.

As well as her experience in freight forwarding, Anne-Sophie is president of the Maritime Commission within the French Freight Forwarding Association, and a member of CLECAT. She deals with public organisations to promote the freight forwarding industry and raise the voice of freight forwarders.

As part of her presidency and membership, Anne-Sophie interacts with public institutions on market issues. For example, when rates started to reach unprecedented levels, Anne-Sophie was involved in discussions with the government to represent freight forwarders.

Developing ocean freight activity

Anne-Sophie has joined the team to build on Zencargo’s ambition of a world with smarter trade. She will be helping to set up new processes and bring her skills, knowledge and expertise to the team. She will also be contributing to Zencargo’s carbon emission solutions, helping customers to establish their carbon footprint and meet emission targets.

“I strongly believe in Zencargo’s digital approach which will drive visibility in a complex and uncertain environment. It will also help to optimise our customer’s supply chain processes with continuous improvement. I am also excited to be working with the team on their commitment to proactively delivering carbon neutral solutions to customers.”
