Head of Parts & Logistics

ZEEKR is a premium electric vehicle and technology solutions brand from Geely Holding Group, China’s largest privately held automotive company. The ZEEKR brand and its first car, the 001, were unveiled at a brand night prior to Shanghai Auto Show in April 2021. What ZEEKR pursues is to co-create the highest enjoyment for the travel experience of its users. As a global company, ZEEKR employs over 10,000 members of staff, covering China, Europe, North America and other places.
