ESTA’s ruling General Assembly has unanimously agreed two new board members as the organisation prepares for the next stage in its development and future challenges.
Alessio Scollo, Sales Director of SIMI Trasporti from Italy, has been elected as the new Section Transport Vice President, working alongside Section Transport President Iffet Türken.
Scollo, who previously worked for Fagioli, will also sit on the ESTA Board. He takes over at ESTA from the greatly-respected André Friderici – technical director of Swiss heavy transport and lifting company Friderici Spécial.
Friderici is stepping down after more than a decade at the helm of the transport section, both as President and Vice President, during which time ESTA’s influence and reputation has grown significantly.
Also joining the board is Alexandre Ferrus, Managing Director of French heavy lift and transport experts Scales, headquartered outside Paris.
A graduate of Université Paris Nanterre, Ferrus has worked in the transport and logistics sector for over two decades.
