New CEO for CH Robinson

CH Robinson Worldwide has announced the appointment of Dave Bozeman as its new chief executive officer and a member of the board of directors, effective 26 June.

Scott Anderson, who has been serving as interim CEO since January 2023, will continue in his role until Bozeman joins the company and will work with him to ensure a smooth transition of leadership.

The company described Bozeman as an ”accomplished executive, bringing over 30 years of experience at industry-leading companies and iconic brands across supply chains, middle-mile transportation, manufacturing, digital and customer service to CH Robinson”.

Jodee Kozlak, chair of the board of directors of CH Robinson, said the company was “thrilled” to name Bozeman as CEO following a comprehensive search process.

“Dave is a seasoned executive who has a strong track record of reinventing complex operating models with industry-wide impact, proven expertise in global supply chain and logistics management through various economic cycles and extensive experience leading high performing teams and cultures to drive results,” she noted.

”Dave is the right leader to take CH Robinson’s vision forward with his focus on organisational opportunity and enhancing value for our customers and our shareholders by capitalising on CH Robinson’s opportunities as a leading asset-light logistics provider in a rapidly-evolving and increasingly complex supply chain environment.”

Bozeman said it was “an honour” to be joining such an “exceptional” company.

“I look forward to working alongside a strong management team and with talented employees to deliver for our customers and accelerate the next phase of sustained growth and success,” he outlined.

”I am confident that with CH Robinson’s superior global services, people and capabilities, we will build on a strong existing foundation and execute on significant growth opportunities to create lasting value for Robinson shareholders, employees and the communities and customers we serve.”
