Crowley liner, logistics executives switch roles
Crowley Maritime Corp. has switched the positions of two of its long-time senior logistics and liner shipping executives.
Rinus Schepen becomes senior vice president and general manager of Crowley Logistics while John Hourihan takes over Schepen’s role as senior vice president and general manager of Crowley Liner Services’ Latin America group.
Schepen joined Crowley in 1987 and took control of the Central America liner shipping operations in 1991. Hourihan also joined Crowley in 1987 and has managed Crowley Logistics since its inception in 1998.
“I am confident this new arrangement will encourage a broader view by both our liner and logistics business units of the developing commercial opportunities in Central America,” said Tom Crowley Jr., chairman, president and chief executive officer of Crowley Maritime.
Crowley Liner Services and Crowley Logistics are both based in Jacksonville, Fla.
