Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of Etihad Airways, has reorganized its European commercial team into five areas, aiming to enhance customer engagement, improve regional support, and strengthen its presence in key markets.

The carrier said these changes come in response to sustained growth and the expansion of Etihad Airways' network and capacity offering across Europe.

The five new European regions led by Rainer Krammer, regional manager Europe and Americas, include a Southwest Europe region covering France, Spain and Portugal led by Eric Lamare, the newly appointed area manager based in Paris, UK and Ireland led by Michael Mackenzie, Northwest Europe covering Belgium, Netherlands and Denmark led by Karim Grinate, Central Europe covering Germany, Austria and Switzerland led by Karim Rakkrouki and Southeast Europe covering Italy, Poland, Czech Republic and Greece led by Lorenzo Donato.

The revised regional structure strengthens Etihad Cargo’s market position, ensuring leadership across online and offline stations while enhancing direct customer engagement in key markets.

"Etihad Cargo's European network is experiencing strong and sustained growth. This restructuring allows us to scale our operations in line with market demand, while reinforcing our commitment to customer-centricity and operational excellence. By bringing our teams closer to the markets they serve, we are positioned to deliver faster, smarter, and more agile logistics solutions," Stanislas Brun, chief cargo officer, said.

The new European regional organisation reflects Etihad Cargo's commitment to agility, customer-centricity and operational excellence across its global network.

Etihad Cargo has recently introduced additional capacity to Europe with its summer schedule, with 660 tonnes of weekly widebody capacity and 200 tonnes of additional weekly freighter capacity.
