Farneti appointed Managing Director of Hellmann Italy

Enrico Farneti will take over as the new Managing Director of the Italian subsidiary of Hellmann Worldwide Logistics (Hellmann Italy) in November. He succeeds Daniela Coppola, who will leave the company at the end of the year as planned.

In September last year, Hellmann acquired its long-standing partner Hellmann Worldwide Logistics S.p.A. (Hellmann Italy). This acquisition enabled Hellmann to significantly strengthen its presence in the central Alpine region and expand its seafreight operations in the strategically important Mediterranean region, particularly through targeted investments in local sales. Today, Hellmann Italy is present in the Italian market with six branches and app. 70 employees across all product areas. Building on this solid foundation, the company now plans to initiate its next growth phase, with the goal of gradually expanding its range of services for multinational key customers and local businesses in Europe’s fifth-largest logistics market.

With Enrico Farneti, Hellmann has secured a logistics expert whose extensive international experience will drive the company's growth objectives. Following various roles in Italy and the USA, Enrico Farneti most recently served as Managing Director at CEVA Logistics.

“We would like to express our sincere thanks to Daniela Coppola, whose contributions over recent years significantly developed the company, positioning us strongly and closely connected with our customers. Italy is a strategically very important country within our global Hellmann network and is set to become one of our fastest growing markets in the region in 2025. Together with Enrico and our strong local team we will build on this solid foundation and embark on the next growth phase,” says Jens Tarnowski, Regional CEO West Europe, Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.
