SINGAPORE Post (SingPost) has appointed Sam Ang, group chief executive officer of Famous Holdings and executive vice-president of SingPost, as chief executive of Quantium Solutions.

Mr Ang will head up both SingPost's eCommerce logistics arm and freight forwarding operations as well as oversee SP Parcels, SingPost said in a release to Singapore Exchange on Monday.

Mr Ang has 35 years of experience in shipping, ocean-freight forwarding, air-freight forwarding and logistics management.

He will report to Mervyn Lim, covering group CEO, until a new group chief executive officer is appointed.

Mr Lim said: "SingPost remains committed to developing and strengthening the company's end-to-end eCommerce logistics business and capabilities. Sam brings with him 35 years of experience in the logistics sector that will help pave the way for SingPost to drive synergies and efficiencies between two of our important businesses - eCommerce logistics and freight forwarding, as we build out our integrated network."

SingPost will officially launch its S$182 million Regional eCommerce Logistics Hub later this year to establish capacity for further growth in eCommerce logistics. The new hub will house its eCommerce logistics capabilities, comprising Quantium Solutions, SP Parcels, Famous Holdings and SP Commerce, all in one facility.
