BREMEN. On July 1, 2021, Karl Gross congratulated his Managing Director, Martin Kollmann, on 25 years of service with the traditional logistics company. Martin Kollmann’s career at Karl Gross has been very much in the style of the medium-sized company, which has taken up the cause of “offering young, committed people career opportunities within its own ranks”. In just under 15 years, Martin Kollmann rose from deputy import manager at Karl Gross Haus in Bremen to the overall management of the Karl Gross Group, of which he has been a member since July 2010.
