Management change at Müller Fresh Food Logistics

Jan-Peter Müller, Managing Director of Müller Fresh Food Logistics, hands over the baton to Barry Stegeman

From January 1, 2025, Barry Stegeman will become Country Manager Food Logistics Netherlands. In this newly created position, he will report directly to Aat van der Meer, Managing Director of DACHSER in the Benelux, and Stefan Behrendt, Deputy Managing Director of DACHSER Food Logistics.

Under the leadership of Jan-Peter Müller, Müller Fresh Food Logistics has developed into a leading and innovative company in the field of temperature-controlled food logistics over the past 25 years. His commitment, vision and leadership have shaped the company into what it is today: a reliable and progressive logistics partner.

Further development

In 2023, Müller Fresh Food Logistics became part of the logistics service provider DACHSER. Jan-Peter Müller plays a key role in the integration of Müller Fresh Food Logistics into DACHSER. This transition will take place gradually in order to make the cooperation between the two family businesses as successful as possible.

“For more than 25 years, I have proudly managed our family business, which was founded by my grandfather Anton Müller,” says Jan-Peter Müller. “Together with our employees and partners, we have built Müller into the solid company it is today, a leading player in the world of food logistics.” He looks back on a valuable career at Müller Fresh Food Logistics and is now confidently handing over the baton to Barry Stegeman. “With his extensive experience - including 23 years within Müller Fresh Food Logistcs - and his vision, I am sure that Barry Stegeman is the right person to continuously develop the company,” comments Müller.

Barry Stegeman has been Commercial Director at Müller Fresh Food Logistics since 2001 and has made a significant contribution to the company's growth and customer relationships. “I am grateful for the confidence of Jan-Peter and the team. Together we will continue to build a sustainable future for our customers and business partners,” says Barry Stegeman. He continues: “Since joining DACHSER, we have made great progress, such as our entry into the European Food Network. This provides us with unique opportunities to offer high quality distribution across Europe. I look forward to continuing this positive development.”

Müller Fresh Food Logistics and DACHSER would like to thank Jan-Peter Müller for his many years of commitment and look forward to a positive and successful future under the leadership of Barry Stegeman. A great new joint step for the two family businesses is thus approaching: the opening of the new warehouse and cross-dock location in Waddinxveen in the Netherlands in the third quarter of 2025.
