monitor safety and quality performance and maintain a continuous focus on improvement. We are very satisfied with the outcome,” he concludes.
Although it is a relatively young business, Vectura was built from decades of accumulated expertise, giving it a significant advantage. By letting each company keep its identity while sharing what works across the group, Vectura has found a way to scale without losing the local relationships that ADR logistics businesses run on.“ The true value of Vectura is our ability to deliver services in products and regions we previously wouldn’ t have been able to as individual companies,” agrees Richard Krueger, Managing Director at Pöppel Tank und Silo.“ Johs. Martens Spedition has huge experience and expertise in the delivery of aviation fuel to airports – but had no infrastructure or operating locations in the south of Germany. Through combining Martens’ expertise and customer contacts, and Pöppel‘ s infrastructure and operational efficiency, Vectura now has several aviation customers in the south of Germany and continues to grow in this area.”
Marcus Ulrich, Managing Director at Johs. Martens Spedition, concludes:“ Sharing best practice is not just restricted to operational areas, but also support functions. An integrated HR system used in Martens’ business for many years will now be integrated into Oxalis. An innovative software solution( for managing compliance, safety management and incidents) used by Oxalis is being tested across the rest of the group. Pöppel‘ s CSRD software provider will be integrated across all companies. It is this balance – keeping the individuality of the brand but with best-in-class support functions – that makes Vectura unique.” ■
