BLG sets sustainability milestone
The C3 Bremen is not only a logistics centre, it is also a groundbreaking project that sets high standards in environmental protection and equipment. Consequently, it serves as a blueprint for the future design of logistics properties.
A woman’s vision for Wilhelmshaven
As Head of the NPorts Wilhelmshaven Port Office, Ilka Frerichs requires a completely different style of port expertise. After all, Jade Bay handles an extensive range of goods, from containers of LNG and chemicals to RoRo cargo.

Three awards for maritime training

NORDFROST inaugurates new capacities
SCHOTENS. The sixth phase of construction on the NORDFROST Seaport Terminal kicked off at the Wilhelmshaven container port in November 2022.
“German seaports are relevant to the system”
BREMEN. German port policy needs to acknowledge the national and European importance of German seaports, stated Frank Dreeke, CEO of BLG LOGISTICS, in September, ahead of the 13th National Maritime Conference (NMK) in Bremen.
“German Ports” on show in Singapore
SINGAPORE. In November, the ports of Bremen, Hamburg and Lower Saxony all shared an address in Singapore for a period of three days.
Main Topic
Grey areas, brownfields and green prospects
After a boom phase last year, the development of the global financial markets, the steep rise in inflation and the resulting uncertainties, among other things, have ensured that the key players on the logistics real estate market are acting rather cautiously at present. They do, however, have complex ideas on how to proceed – especially with a stronger focus on sustainability, digitalisation and increased attractiveness.
Growing gaps and probing questions
The German job market in general, and logistics in particular, are in a state of flux. Both are influenced by, among other things, baby boomers reaching retirement age, a shortage of skilled workers, apprenticeship vacancies and employees’ reassessment of their private and professional lives.
Big Players & Boomtowns
Even without the aid of drone technology, we have taken an entertaining flight over Germany to take a closer look at the logistics sector – plus facts and figures on current developments in the logistics real estate market.

APPRENTICE INSIGHTS
Trainees are also in high demand in the maritime industry and in logistics, which is why LOGISTICS PILOT asked some of them the reason for choosing their field, how their generation feels about the industry, and what needs to change to maintain or even improve the appeal of the training opportunities.
On the way up
With the amount of space available dwindling and automation on the rise, more and more logistics companies are not only thinking ahead, but are also thinking upwards. Examples include the high-bay storage systems for BOXBAY containers and for NORDFROST frozen foods.

BLG sets sustainability milestone
The C3 Bremen is not only a logistics centre, it is also a groundbreaking project that sets high standards in environmental protection and equipment. Consequently, it serves as a blueprint for the future design of logistics properties.
FRESH – but well thought out
Social media – especially Snapchat, TikTok and Instagram – are a part of everyday life for most young people. Companies can use these to present themselves as an attractive employer to future generations. Based in Stuhr near Bremen, CML Transport und Logistik explains how to go about it and what you need to consider. But according to a recent study, there’s still much room for improvement.
Logistical twins are a logical choice
OHB Digital Services, a Bremen-based company, has developed a digital twin which, thanks to satellite data, works best precisely where it is most difficult for other software – in large outdoor spaces – and offers a high degree of flexibility without permanent markings or manual registration of goods and location.

Off to new shores!
Automotive logistics company MOSOLF is tapping into a new field of business, port logistics, with a particular focus on Wilhelmshaven and Cuxhaven.
TAILWIND BOOSTING GIRL POWER
Increasing women’s visibility and promoting them in the shipping, trade and logistics industries are just two of the initiatives that the Women’s International Shipping & Trading Association (WISTA) champion as part of their cause. The international networking organisation enjoys wide support for this cause, such as the senator’s reception for the “2nd International Day for Women in Maritime” held in Hamburg City Hall on 31 May.
AI on the rise
July 2022 marked the official launch of the Transfer Centre for Artificial Intelligence (AI) at the Bremen and Bremerhaven sites. The centre has since not only raised awareness of AI among the general public by organising such events, rather it has also supported local small and medium-sized companies in implementing AI technologies. The main goal, however, is to use networking activities to strengthen and expand Bremen’s AI ecosystem. The centre is funded by the Senator for Economic Affairs, Labour and Europe.
