Fast Terminal in Colombia becomes Horizon Auto Logistics


Fast Terminal in Colombia becomes Horizon Auto Logistics Effective October 1st, 2023, Fast Terminal in Colombia will operate as and do business as Horizon Auto Logistics! The rebranding has been in the works since the beginning of the year and will mean that Fast Terminal Envigado, Fast Terminal Caldas, Fast Terminal Bogota and Fast Terminal Santa Marta will all operate as and do business as Horizon Auto Logistics (Envigado), Horizon Auto Logistics (Caldas), Horizon Auto Logistics (Bogota) and Horizon Auto Logistics (Santa Marta) respectively. Says Per Folkesson, CEO of Horizon Auto Logistics; “As a Group we have decided to operate as Horizon Auto Logistics as broadly as we can. It makes sense to unite our operating name as far as possible and today Horizon is more recognized as a global automotive logistics provider compared to the name Fast Terminal.

Of course, Fast Terminal have built an incredible legacy in the Colombian market during the last 10 years, being the first true automotive logistics company in providing comprehensive automotive terminal, VPC and logistics services. And we are very proud of this, but Horizon have equally built a legacy of bringing a new level of service and accountability to the industry, and this is the brand we are now expanding under in new markets such as Africa, Indian Sub-Continent, Middle East, Europe and South America”. Most of the re-branding has already been done, with some last sites being re-branded until end of the year. The re-branding coincides with the company’s 10th anniversary this year, providing an excellent opportunity to mark the occasion further. Says Stefany Arbelaez, VP & Head of Colombia; “As a Group we have during the last years worked on many alignments between our companies in the various markets, facilitating a uniform approach towards our total business. Operating as Horizon across borders is part of this alignment, we are of course very proud of what Fast Terminal have achieved over the years, but we are equally proud being able to operate as Horizon going forward. Our customers will still have our full commitment in taking their business’ forward”. Horizon Auto Logistics operates in 8 markets globally, employing 650 people and handles about 450,000 vehicles and 2,000 equipment’s annually. It provides complete supply chain services for finished vehicles, which includes vessel cargo-handling, port operations, yard operations and distribution centers, VPC and EPC (technical) services, inland transportation, distribution management and plant logistics.
