Our half-year performance demonstrated stable net revenue in the first half driven by above-market growth in air and ocean freight and resumed growth in Contract Logistics,” said Xavier Urbain, CEO. “This is good progress, however we won’t stop here. As the logical next step in CEVA’s evolution, a global operational excellence program was started in April to take the organization to the next level by simplifying and applying consistent standards and best practices across the organization with the goal of better serving our customers. This program will also help us to deliver additional productivity improvements for all our business lines.” “We have successfully introduced a new structure for Freight Management in the US and have an experienced management team in place. With the roll-out of our One Freight System in North America, CEVA can now provide customer shipment oversight through a single, global freight management system. Our ongoing investment in field sales teams led to a number of significant new business wins and renewals in the Automotive, Consumer & Retail and Technology sectors.”
