Welcome to another Tuesday Spotlight newsletter, featuring the latest episode of the FreightCaviar Podcast- plus our Carrier of the Week feature.

Today, we sit down with Omer Ramusevic, Owner at My Staffing Partner, located in Sarajevo, Bosnia.

Building a U.S. Logistics Powerhouse in Bosnia

We met with Omer in October of last year in Serbia. Today, we catch up to learn more about his start in the industry, the growing outsourcing scene in Bosnia and Serbia, and much more.

Born in Bosnia, raised in the U.S., Omer grew up watching his father drive a truck for various companies throughout the years. But it wasn't until a friend's brother, an owner of a St. Louis trucking company, offered him a dispatch role that had recently opened up. Tired of working in retail, Omer took the leap. This entry point led him to gain valuable experience at C.H. Robinson, among other companies.

After a couple years, immersed in the American logistics scene, Omer realized he missed the European lifestyle and moved back to Bosnia. Opportunity soon knocked again when a former U.S. client called him and asked if he'd be interested in leading their Bosnian branch, recruiting and training people.

Intrigued by the challenge, Omer accepted the offer. His leadership caught the attention of a Sarajevo-based broker, asking to come on to a higher management role at his company. At the same time, Omer pursued private training, recruitment, and marketing ventures.

Omer recognized that his true calling lay in consulting – and launched his own business, My Staffing Partner, blending his expertise with a passion for developing people and processes.

In This Episode, You’ll Discover:

• Bosnia's Rise as a Logistics Powerhouse: Why more companies are turning to Bosnia to outsource.
• Mindset Matters: The differences between Bosnian and American mentalities.
• How Omer turned a small consulting idea into a staffing force.

Here's what he had to say on success:

“You have to become good at your craft. It’s not about chasing money; it’s about becoming better.”
