FOR THE PRESS

“With over 11,000 companies engaged in the logistics sector, Hamburg is one of the most dynamic logistics locations in Germany and the most important transfer hub for goods into and out of the Baltic region and Central and Eastern Europe. transfairlog is the first event to focus on the economic region of all the states around the Baltic and the North Sea. My goal is to establish the logistics region of Hamburg as the leading innovations location. The new trade fair transfairlog is making a great contribution towards achieving this aim.”

Senator Frank Horch, Senator for Economic Affairs, Transport and Innovation, Hamburg

“The economic region made up of the Baltic and the German North Sea ports has immense potential. This is one of the most important and economically powerful regions in the entire continent. Already exports from those EU countries which have direct access to the Baltic together amounts to 725 billion euros, which is around 30 percent of the total for the EU as a whole. Also 30 percent of all imports to EU countries come in via the EU states bordering the Baltic. Establishing a transport and logistics fair at this location for the medium and long term, was a step that was more than overdue.”

Professor Dr. Michael Bräuninger, Research Director of the Hamburgisches Weltwirtschaftsinstitut (HWWI)
