RIM logistics, ltd., a leading provider of global freight forwarding and third party logistics services, announced the appointment of two members to its sales team.  Rasmus Nielsen is joining RIM as Chicago’s new Sales Manager after spending the past five years at Panalpina, where he served as District Head of Sales / Midwest. Rasmus was born in Denmark and lived for several years in Portugal before apprenticing in the freight forwarding industry in Copenhagen in 1998. In his new role with RIM, he will be part of the Chicago Branch Management Team and will also have European Route Development responsibilities for Germany, Netherlands, and Denmark.  “I decided to join RIM because of RIM’s great reputation for service in the industry, along with the opportunity to be part of the exciting growth plans for the future,” said Nielsen.  Matt Bowman brings over 14 years of freight forwarding experience to his new position of Director of Sales / Global Accounts. Matt is joining RIM from Agility, where he served as Strategic Account Manager / Global Sales.  “Over the past 14 years in this business I have developed a certain fascination with RIM logistics,” said Bowman. “This attraction was born from the respect earned in competing on the street along with the impeccable name tied to executive leadership, and loyal employees making it happen every day. Today, I feel extremely fortunate to be a part of the team, and look forward to contributing in our continued growth movement to $500 Million in sales.”  “RIM is excited to have two talented individuals join our team for our ambitious growth plans,” said Rob Mueller, President of RIM logistics. “We are confident that with the addition of these individuals, those goals will become within reach.”  Nielsen and Bowman will be based at the RIM logistics Corporate Headquarters in Roselle, IL.
