FedEx appoints new management at ANC Express

Following the acquisition of ANC Holdings Ltd in December 2006, FedEx Express has announced a new leadership team at ANC Express.

Current group operations director Michael Holt will become the new chief executive officer as of April 1, 2007. He replaces Mark Gittins who retires. FedEx Express veteran Trevor Hoyle will move to ANC to lead operations succeeding Holt from April 5, 2007.

“It has been a privilege to lead ANC as we have grown and developed the company, including the preparation for our next exciting steps forward under FedEx ownership,” said Gittins.

Robert Elliott, FedEx Express president, Europe, Middle East, Indian subcontinent and Africa added: “Mark Gittins’ drive to create a profitable, customer-focused organisation is what made ANC Holdings Ltd such an attractive acquisition for FedEx. He has been an excellent chief executive officer and I wish him all the best for his retirement.”
