Gebrüder Weiss Bids Farewell to Management Board member Peter Kloiber

Changing of the guard in the Gebrüder Weiss executive: Peter Kloiber (64) is retiring after 28 years on the Management Board. He held responsibility for Parcel Services, Logistics, IT, Human Resources and Organizational Development, Marketing and Communications, as well as the subsidiaries Xvise (logistics consulting) and dicall (call center services).
 
Born in Vorarlberg / Austria, Peter Kloiber launched his career at Gebrüder Weiss in 1990 when he took up a post in corporate and human resources development. He recognized the key role of internal training and development programs for long-term success, and initiated their establishment. The company‘s transformation into a modern, networked logistics group is also due in a large part to his dedication. "Peter Kloiber is a pioneer of our value-oriented corporate culture, which continues to shape our self-image and strategic direction to this day. We owe him a great deal," said Wolfram Senger-Weiss, CEO of Gebrüder Weiss, paying tribute to Kloiber's total of 35 years of service to the company.
 
Peter Schafleitner (56), an experienced logistics expert, is moving up to the company's top management tier. Born in Salzburg, he joined the organization in 1989, holding various positions in sales and land transport and managing two locations in Austria. From 2017 onwards, he was Director and Regional Manager for the Central Region, which includes Salzburg, Carinthia, Upper Austria, and the Czech Republic. Since 2024, he has been Head of Product Management for Land Transport. Schafleitner's appointment to the Management Board reflects the group’s primary focus on continuity and the benefits of long-term experience and internal networking.
