Girteka, Europe’s largest asset-based road transport company, has appointed Dmitrij Voitkevič as Head of Transport Operations Division in Poland, effective July 1. Based at the company’s largest operational hub in Sady, near Poznań, Dmitrij Voitkevič will be responsible for strengthening operational performance, enhancing service delivery, and driving the long-term strategic development of the site. 

“Girteka operates in a fast-paced, dynamic environment – and I’m proud to step into this leadership role at a time of growth and transformation,” said Dmitrij Voitkevič. “My focus is on developing a modern, resilient, and future-oriented transport base – one that integrates smart technologies, strengthens team capabilities, and embraces sustainable practices. Everything we do operationally should support Girteka’s broader vision of ensuring that products essential for life reach our customers across Europe on time, in full and in the right condition all year around. 

With over 15 years of leadership experience across international projects and large-scale operations, Voitkevič brings a hands-on, people-focused approach. Before joining Girteka Group, he held senior roles in project management and operational development, delivering complex, high-impact initiatives across multiple stakeholders. Since joining Girteka Group in 2022 as Project Manager in the Transport Division, he has led key initiatives to improve operational alignment and efficiency. 

“My approach is guided by the principle: small steps, big vision,” added Voitkevič. “Everyday, consistent actions — even small ones — are the key to achieving long-term goals and building lasting results. The base’s operations must improve both service quality and safety standards while supporting the organization’s broader goals.” 

 His immediate priority in the new role is to enhance the efficiency of the Sady base, ensuring timely, smooth, and secure delivery performance. Close cooperation with local teams and a strong understanding of day-to-day operational challenges will help identify and implement impactful improvements quickly. 

“Dmitrij’s appointment is an important step in strengthening our leadership capacity at one of our most strategic locations,” said Mindaugas Paulauskas, CEO of Girteka Transport. “His operational insight, team leadership, and ability to deliver results will be crucial as we continue to invest in performance, quality, and long-term growth.” 

Strategic Significance of the Sady Base 

The Sady transport base, opened in 2022, plays a critical role in Girteka Group’s international operations. It is the company’s largest and most advanced facility in Europe, covering over 22,000 m², and serves as a key hub for Western European markets. The site includes fleet maintenance facilities, driver infrastructure, and administrative services. It also houses the Girteka Drivers’ Academy, one of the Group’s main training centers. 

The base supports nearly 6,000 drivers and more than 400 mechanics, with capacity to service up to 4,000 trucks annually — making it one of the largest road transport facilities in Europe. 

To meet increasing customer demands and evolving market needs, Girteka Group continues to invest in operational excellence and fleet modernization. In 2025, the company placed Europe’s largest single truck order, securing 2,000 new Volvo FH and FH Aero vehicles, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable and high-performance transport solutions.
