Integrated global logistics
company Kintetsu World
Express (KWE) is ready
for take-off in the regional
and international airfreight
and aerospace logistics market
following the appointment
of Keith Horn Management
Services (KHMS).
Richard Szabo, director at
KWE says: “Keith Horn has
chalked up numerous accolades
throughout his business tenure,
most notably in the supply
chain and logistics industry.
He is particularly well known
for his meticulous approach to
managing the intricate demands
of the aerospace industry and
for building cohesive teams and
network support.”
Horn has been involved in the
integrated logistics and supply
chain management disciplines
for over 20 years, and has served
in the clearing and forwarding
industry for over 45 years in
a range of positions – from
operations, sales and marketing
to logistics and general
management.”
Prior to 2011, Horn was

employed at KWE in various
capacities, including that of
supply chain and logistics
director. He was also responsible
for managing the on-site
OR Tambo supply chain and
integrated logistics requirements
of South African Airways
Technical (SAAT.)
Through his consultancy
company he is also involved
in the development of end-toend
supply chain management
solutions and training in logistics
and supply chain management
for freight forwarders, third
party logistics service providers,
importers and exporters.
The contract with KWE will
run concurrently with other
contracts that KHMS has in
place.
In 2011 KWE formed Project
Cargo Japan in a joint venture
with Hitachi Transport Systems.
PCJ provides consulting
and engineering services for
international project cargo
transportation for social
infrastructure and energy
business, as well as the relocation
of manufacturing facilities.
