GREENSBORO, NC — Susan Alt has been named President and CEO of Volvo Logistics North America, Inc., effective immediately.

Alt was formerly vice president – marketing for Volvo Trucks North America, Inc.

In her new position, Alt succeeds Ake Niklasson, who earlier this year left Volvo Logistics North America, Inc. to lead Volvo Logistics’ global operations. Alt, 38, has been with Volvo Truck Corporation for 15 years, both in the U.S. and Sweden.

“Volvo Logistics has provided world-class logistics services to the Volvo Group companies for the last 20 years,” Niklasson said. “We want to continue to leverage our services to companies outside of the Volvo Group. Susan’s background in truck marketing will help us grow and promote our effective logistics solutions to new customers.”

Previously, Alt served in a number of positions of increasing responsibility within Volvo Trucks. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Virginia Tech, and an MBA from Wake Forest University.
