GeoPost lips zipped as Begle quits

Posted by | Oct 10, 2005 | |

French parcels carrier GeoPost was tight-lipped at the weekend about the surprise departure of Claude Begle, chief executive of Geopost International Management and Development, for arch rival DHL Express. Geopost, a subsidiary of French postal organisation La Poste, declined to say when and why he had left the company. Journalists were referred to the announcement made by DHL last Monday concerning Mr Begle’s appointment as chief operating officer for DHL Express Germany and DHL Express Central Europe. The communications manager for GeoPost, Marion Egal, would say only that it was Mr Begle who had chosen to leave the company and not the company which had decided to dispense with his services.
