DHL Supply Chain has appointed Edmund Hsiung as managing director for its South Korea business. Hsiung, who has relocated to Seoul, will manage the business operations across 11 facilities, and oversee business strategy, new business development, expansion, and accelerate digitalization projects in the country.
With more than three decades of experience in the logistics industry, Hsiung has spent half of that performing various roles at DHL Supply Chain and DHL Express, both of which are under the Deutsche Post DHL Group.
He was most recently the head of strategic partnerships for DHL Supply Chain in Asia-Pacific, where he was instrumental in driving key corporate initiatives in the region, including a ten-year strategic partnership with SF Holding and a joint venture with JG Summit, one of the largest conglomerates in the Philippines, to provide best-in-class transportation, warehousing, and distribution solutions.
