Globe Air Cargo Bulgaria Celebrates 20th Anniversary Under the Leadership of Tania Mlechenkova
Globe Air Cargo Bulgaria, a subsidiary of ECS Group, celebrates its 20th anniversary, highlighting the remarkable journey of Managing Director Tania Mlechenkova. From the company’s first employee in Bulgaria to its guiding force, Mlechenkova’s leadership has been instrumental in building and sustaining Globe Air Cargo’s strong market presence.
ECS Group’s success is driven by dedicated local teams who understand their markets, valuing staff loyalty and gender equality. Tania Mlechenkova stands out as a key leader who embodies these values.
Starting in 2004, Mlechenkova was hired as the first employee of Globe Air Cargo Bulgaria, with the task of establishing operations from the ground up. Guided by then-Managing Director Heiner Sass, she played a pivotal role in launching the company’s business in Bulgaria. When Sass retired, Mlechenkova took over the reins and successfully navigated the company through numerous challenges, ensuring continued growth and reliable service. “One of the biggest challenges was maintaining and building on the trust established with our airline partners,” Mlechenkova said. “I believe our success lies in the uncompromising service quality we always strive for.”
Under her leadership, GAC Bulgaria has become a trusted partner in the air cargo industry, representing major airlines like LOT Polish Airlines, Swiss Word Cargo and DHL Aviation for nearly two decades. Mlechenkova’s personal touch, her commitment to respect and accountability, and her close relationship with both clients and her team have set GAC Bulgaria apart from its competitors.
Reflecting on the company’s journey, Mlechenkova expressed pride in GAC Bulgaria’s growth and her dedication to its future. “Today, as we celebrate 20 years, I can say that this has never been just a job. The service we provide goes far beyond that. My team and I remain committed to the same principles, working with passion and dedication to excellence for the next 20 years.
The 20th anniversary was celebrated at a special event in Sofia on September 19, 2024, attended by partners, clients, and employees, marking two decades of dedication, resilience, and success under Mlechenkova’s leadership. The event also reflected the Group’s commitment to sustainability and its dedication to promoting equal opportunities. To reduce the carbon footprint of traditional goodies, a photo booth was installed for the guests: each photo taken contributed to a €10 donation benefiting the National Math School. As a result, €1,530 will be given to this association, which relies solely on contributions.
