Renate Gutjahr took over Roland Spedition, founded in 1982, from one day to the next in the nineties. She and a loyal team achieved great things as a result: making the company successful despite adverse circumstances, and specializing in Combined Transport in a pioneering role throughout Austria.
On the occasion of our 40th anniversary, we met up with Renate Gutjahr for a conversation and were allowed to interview her about the early years of Roland Spedition and, of course, about what the former managing director does today.
Note: this interview is only available in German.
A strong women in the freight forwarding industry
In the beginning, Renate Gutjahr was one of only a few working women in this field and it was not easy to be taken seriously as a young female entrepreneur in a male-dominated industry. Thanks to her dedication and a loyal team, as well as co-managing director Johannes Blanka, Roland Spedition became a successful container operator with a family flair.
Acknowledgements
Finally, we would like to thank Renate Gutjahr for the interview and all these interesting insights.
