For more than eight years, Matilda Gomina, Chief Executive Officer of Amgray Logistics, has redefined what it means to run a logistics business in today’s unpredictable global market. From the United States to Canada, the United Kingdom, and Nigeria, Amgray has carved a niche as a dependable cross-border operator, weathering storms that have shaken even older players in the industry.
When Matilda founded Amgray Logistics, she understood the complexity of the path ahead. The logistics sector is notorious for its instability, shaped by fluctuating fuel prices, regulatory hurdles, infrastructural challenges, and shifting customer expectations. In addition, global economic disruptions such as supply chain breakdowns and currency swings have placed immense pressure on operators. Yet, under her leadership, Amgray not only survived but steadily grew into a trusted name.
“Every year came with its own test,” Matilda reflected in a recent conversation. “From customs delays to exchange rate swings and infrastructure gaps, we had to keep finding new ways to adapt without letting down our customers.”
That ability to adapt has become the company’s hallmark. She placed customer-centric innovation at the heart of Amgray’s strategy, integrating technology-driven solutions such as real-time tracking systems, streamlined processes, and transparent communication channels. These tools reinforced client trust, ensuring that both individuals and businesses could rely on Amgray for seamless deliveries despite external turbulence.
“In logistics, trust is everything. A client hands you their goods and expects peace of mind. For us, seamless service isn’t a slogan, it’s the backbone of our business,” she emphasized.
Her approach has gone beyond technology. She believes that resilience also rests on people. She has built a culture of accountability within her workforce by prioritizing training and empowerment. “The logistics industry runs on human effort as much as technology. You can have the best software in the world, but without a committed team, you will fail,” she noted.
Even during periods of intense global disruption, when supply chains were collapsing and exchange rates were unpredictable, Amgray Logistics managed to hold its ground. Rather than shrinking operations, she leaned on persistence and foresight. “Challenges don’t scare me anymore. They sharpen our creativity. Each setback taught us how to build systems that can withstand shocks,” she explained with a smile.
Today, Amgray Logistics stands as a success story of African-led global enterprise, showing that resilience and vision can turn adversity into opportunity. The company has become a model for how logistics firms can deliver credibility, efficiency, and reliability in a volatile environment.
Looking forward, Gomina is focused on scaling operations while maintaining the values that built Amgray’s reputation. “We’ve proven that we can stand strong in difficult times. Now, the focus is on expansion, reaching more markets while staying true to our promise: reliable, seamless logistics for every customer.”
Her journey reflects more than the survival of a company. It is the story of how one leader’s determination and innovation are reshaping the standards of logistics in Africa and beyond.
