August 14, 2013 : Globe Express Services, one of the world's top 100 global logistics providers, recently featured in the 2013 Edition of Logistics Middle East magazine's Power List, an annual listing of the most powerful logistics executives in the region. The company's Managing Director for Gulf States, Mustapha Kawam, ranked 14th in the Middle East, up 8 places from his 22nd position in 2012.

Kawam's exceptional rise among the ranks reflects the dynamic growth of Globe Express Services (GES) over the past few years. In 2012 the Group completed a new state of art warehouse in Dubai's Jebel Ali Free Zone and opened a new Dammam Terminal Yard in Saudi Arabia. Kawam has been a driving force behind GES' success, helping establish GES Kuwait and further expanding the company's presence in the Arabian Gulf.

Commenting on the recognition, Mustapha Kawam said, “It is indeed an honour for me to be ranked among the region's top logistics executives and to lead an extremely dedicated and hard working team at Globe Express Services. It is the invaluable contributions of the team that continue to elevate GES among the world's leading logistics players. Last year in particular was very memorable for us as we opened new key facilities and further strengthened our position in the region's highly competitive logistics sector, and we are confident of ending 2013 on a very positive note as well.”
