“I am proud to have Marilienke and Gameemah leading CH Logistics alongside me. Both are highly skilled professionals who bring outstanding expertise and commitment to their roles. Together, they demonstrate that leadership excellence is not defined by gender, but by vision, competence, and dedication,” said Christian Helms, Chairman of CH Logistics.
A New Generation of Logistics Leadership

In their leadership roles, they are responsible for driving both the strategic direction and operational excellence of the company, positioning CH Logistics as an innovative and forward-thinking logistics partner in South Africa and beyond.

“With this leadership team, we are sending a strong signal: diversity is not just a principle, it is a practice. Different perspectives, leadership styles, and professional backgrounds make our company stronger and more resilient,” added Helms.
Empowering Women in Logistics
By embracing women-managed leadership, CH Logistics underlines its position as a progressive logistics company in South Africa and reinforces its commitment to empowering female leadership in an industry traditionally dominated by men. This bold step reflects the company’s vision of building a more inclusive, innovative, and future-ready logistics sector that continues to shape global trade and supply chains.
