Andrew Barnes has been appointed UK sales director for US-based 3PL Crane Worldwide Logistics, starting in his new job on 1 April.

“This knowledge will not only benefit our team in the UK but also our customers exporting to and importing from these hotspots,” he added.
Mr Barnes will be based in Birmingham.
