From C.H. Robinson to Girteka


Jeroen Eijsink (right) has been appointed CEO of Lithuanian-headquartered Girteka Group, effective 1 August 2023. Eijsink brings top international expertise from Siemens, Deutsche Post DHL, and in particular C.H. Robinson, where he served as president, Europe since 2015.

 

Founded in 1905 and based in Eden Prairie, MN, the US company is one of the major logistics services providers in the world.

 

Edvardas Liachovičius: "In 1997, when Girteka only had one truck, I became one of the first employees here. In 2008, when Girteka had 800 colleagues, 300 trucks and EUR 50 million in annual sales, I was appointed CEO. Today, as Girteka has 23,000 colleagues, almost 10,000 trucks and EUR 2 billion in annual sales, I am privileged to start the third stage – becoming an active Girteka Group board member."

 

Girteka Group continues as a company fully owned by Mindaugas Raila (90%) and Edvardas Liachovičius (10%) through their family offices. (ah)
