EDITORIAL
THANK YOU MIGUEL ...
It is possible that, despite our intentions, these words may not be sufficient to express our
true feelings – our most sincere gratitude and our memories.
Thank you for having brought about our acquaintance, for having made possible that
we have what we have, for having been so close to each one of us during all this time
which seems so short now.
Thank you for having created a real team in Madrid, not only a working one, but also a human and especially friendly team. Such bond is not at all easy to create, especially when our working life is so hectic and full
of pressures and feelings which, together, give rise to the meaning of the word “transport”.
This new stage without you is not proving at all easy but thanks to the bond you managed to create between
us, which remains and is making us ever stronger, Transnatur Madrid can continue to grow, as has always
been our wish and the reality up until now. You can count on us; we hope we can continue to be your Pride,
and be able to fulfil the expectations you always had of us.
Neither can we miss the opportunity to thank the Transnatur Group and each one of its members for their full
support. You have made us feel very close to all of you. Thank you.
We also extend our gratitude to our partners, our collaborators, who, day in day out, join us in this constant
battle. They have shown us feelings of affection and warmth which have brought us ever closer to each one
of them. Thank you.
This is not a beginning, it is a continuity to a Great Company fully established for almost twenty years in the
capital city of Spain – Madrid, with an enthusiastic professional team eager to fulfil our obligations and our
wishes.
This is to you, Miguel.
Mr Francisco López
Branch Manager of Transnatur Madrid
NEW AGENTS:
Militzer & Munch / GERH (M&M Group). As announced in our previous
newsletter, Transnatur has started an exclusive collaboration with this
agent for all traffics concerning Russia, Ukraine and Byelorussia as well
as the rest of countries that made up the Soviet Union. The traffic with
Russia, specifically, will be done through the Russian Company GERH
which is part of The Militzer & Munch Group. This meeting was used to
present the two Companies formally and to lay down the commercial
and operative strategy to be carried out in the future.

The Irún, Zaragoza and Bilbao Directors, Eduardo
Lopetegui, Agustín López and Juan Zugazaga
respectively, and Ígor Ortiz from the Irún Sales Dept.
took part in the ADEGI Race for companies
celebrated in San Sebastian last April.
This is a race for companies in which the important
thing for the four runners is to run together as a
team, since the times made by the runners of the
team are all taken into consideration. Hence the
importance of staying CLOSED, constantly
encouraging each
other. Transnatur’s
time was 32’35’’.....
not bad for 7,5 km.
