GBA Logistics Scores Big with Soccer Legend Bastian Schweinsteiger
We're excited to announce the remarkable partnership that transcends the boundaries of sports and logistics - none other than the legendary footballer, Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Bastian is a proud supporter of GBA Logistics. Our Managing Director in Austria, Alex Huebschmann, shares a longstanding friendship with Bastian, and their camaraderie is also extended into the professional world.
Bastian Schweinsteiger, often hailed as one of the greatest football players the world has ever seen, has not only dazzled fans on the field but has also demonstrated his commitment to compassion off the pitch. His involvement in charity events has been nothing short of extraordinary, where he actively contributes to raising funds for children battling cancer.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to Bastian Schweinsteiger for his support, proving once again that teamwork extends far beyond the soccer field. Together, GBA Logistics and Bastian are geared up to tackle challenges, score goals, and make a lasting impact in the world, one delivery at a time.
GBA – Working together

He continues with “The sense of commitment and dedication from the offices really shows as they live our company values. And here is a quote from one of our newest team members, Artur:
“Here at GBA Wroclaw, I could work happy until I retire.”
