Solvares Group Moves Ahead with New Sales Structure

Reading, United Kingdom, June 22, 2023 --(PR.com)-- The Solvares Group was founded in 2018. In 2021, Städtler Logistik GmbH from Nuremberg and Opheo Solutions GmbH from Hamburg joined. They form the logistics division of the Solvares Group. To strengthen the joint offer position especially for Transport Management and to bring it further into the international market, the position of Sales Manager Logistics of the Solvares Group has now been created.

"With James De Roo, the Solvares Group gets a proven expert for logistics software and modern concepts for digital supply chain management. We are very pleased that we were able to convince him to join us," says Ivan Bagaric, CEO of Solvares Group.

Dr Stefan Anschütz, Managing Director of Städtler Logistik and Opheo Solutions, adds: "James will help us to drive the internationalisation of our business and further develop our portfolio in line with the future needs of the market. He knows transport logistics like no other."

De Roo can look back on many years of experience in the field of software and consulting for the transport logistics industry. A native of the United States, De Roo was employed by PTV Group for over eleven years, including four and a half years as Managing Director of PTV DPS in the United Kingdom. Most recently, he was Vice President Business Unit Customs at Ecovium.

Parallel to the logistics division, the solution area for Field Service will also be more focused with immediate effect through its own sales organisation. Hannes Heckner, as managing director of mobileX GmbH (already part of the Solvares Group), will additionally take over the sales management for the service division. In addition to the products of mobileX, the Solvares range for Field Service Management includes the solutions of FLS GmbH - FAST LEAN SMART. Together, mobileX and FLS offer a unique range of services consisting of leading mobile applications and world-class appointment and tour planning solutions.

"As co-founder of mobileX and long-time market companion of FLS, Hannes Heckner has a deep knowledge of our products and customers," said Solvares CEO Ivan Bagaric. "His expertise and experience will bring our field service division even further forward and help our prospects to find the ideal solution for their service and field service."

The solution portfolio of the Solvares Group is completed by the offer of impactit/portatour® from Vienna. The company provides solutions for field sales management and helps sales teams and field staff to optimise their tour and visit planning.
