Express Trailers appoints new CCO and Head of Sales

Franco Azzopardi, Group CEO at Express Trailers, revealed that the company has appointed a new Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) and Head of Sales.

“After a lot of thought, evaluations, and appraising of my team, and after having articulated my reasoning to our RemCom (remuneration committee which is a board committee), I have pleasure in announcing the promotion and admission of a new member to my management team and the promotion of another to the C-suite,” Mr Azzopardi wrote.

David Fleri Soler, a long-standing employee at Express Trailers, has been made CCO.

“Mr Fleri Soler has been with the group since 1987, that is 35 years, after having spent another five years before joining us with another leading logistics company,” the CEO wrote.

The newly appointed CCO also serves as Chairperson of the logistics section at The Malta Chamber and is a chartered member of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport.

“I have worked closely with Mr Fleri Soler as the previous Head of Sales and Business Development and I look forward to even more strategic planning with him,” Mr Azzopardi added.

Express Trailers’ new Head of Sales is Jesmond Mifsud, another long-standing employee of the company.

“Mr Mifsud has been our Senior Manager in sales and has been working with us since 1991, going into his 31st year,” the CEO commented.

“He is also a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport… Mr Mifsud has, as from 1st January, been promoted to Head of Sales and admitted to my ManCom (management committee), which is the group of Heads and top Managers driving the business plan corporate wide,” Mr Azzopardi concluded.

Mr Azzopardi has served as Group CEO at Express Trailers since July 2011. Up until last September, he also served as Group Chairman.

Founded in 1963, Express Trailers now prides itself in being a market leader of the logistics industry, specialising in providing a total logistics solution from a single source.
