Today’s business world is marked by rapid change, on-demand inventories, and multi-platform, e-commerce-driven fulfilment services. Against that backdrop, effective supply chain management is more critical than ever. From forward logistics to reverse logistics, and from freight forwarding to complete outsourcing, business leaders need supply chain solutions that work together in tight coordination to deliver value at global scale.

From 2005 to 2013, Gilbert served as Executive Vice President for GEODIS Wilson, the freight management division of international logistics provider, the GEODIS Group. There, he managed an integrated network of 57 countries around the world and more than 80 agents.
