WOW Logistics, a leading provider of temperature-controlled warehousing and supply chain solutions, announced the appointment of Steve Gundlach as Chief Executive Officer.

Gundlach succeeds Howard Kamerer, who is retiring after more than a decade of leadership. Kamerer will remain on WOW’s Board of Directors.

Gundlach brings more than 30 years of global supply chain experience. He most recently served as the President of UPS Global Logistics and Distribution, where he led its global supply chain strategy with a focus on operational optimization, innovation and international expansion. Prior to UPS, he held senior leadership roles at DB Schenker and CEVA Logistics.

“I am honored and excited to join WOW Logistics at such a crucial time in the company’s journey,” said Gundlach. “With a 48-year legacy in the cold storage industry, WOW Logistics has a strong foundation and a talented team. I look forward to collaborating with them to drive innovation, provide value to our customers, and explore new growth opportunities.”

Under Gundlach’s leadership, WOW Logistics will accelerate its growth strategy by expanding its geographic footprint, entering adjacent verticals and investing in technology and infrastructure, while remaining true to the company’s core values.

“With the rising demand for reliable temperature-controlled solutions, WOW Logistics is well-positioned to lead the market and deliver exceptional value to our clients across the U.S. and beyond,” said Gundlach.

“We thank Howard for his leadership and vision over the past decade, and we are excited to welcome Steve as CEO. His global experience and operational expertise make him the ideal leader to guide WOW Logistics into its next phase of growth and market leadership,” said Brent Tasugi, Managing Director at I Squared Capital.
