Peel Ports strengthens commercial team
Peel Ports Group has appointed Gareth Davies as sales director for the Port of Liverpool to drive commercial growth and enhance customer solutions.
With over 30 years in multimodal logistics, Gareth joins from Wincanton, where he oversaw bulk transport operations.
His experience spans leadership roles at DB Schenker Rail (UK) and Den Hartogh Logistics.
In his new role, Gareth will collaborate with customers to develop port-centric services, improving supply chain efficiency across sectors including containers, biomass, metals and project cargo.

“We want to play our part in optimising supply chains for those in the project cargo, bulk materials, RoRo cargo and many more industries, by helping them streamline their logistics.
“The Port of Liverpool is iconic, it’s at the heart of the UK supply chain, and we have a fantastic team here that I’m thrilled to be joining.”
Phil Hall, Mersey port director, Peel Ports Group, added: “Gareth brings a wealth of experience to this role, and we’re excited to see him nurture the strong relationships we’ve built with our customers.
