28.07.2023
STADE. In mid-June, Stade’s port industry celebrated the 50th anniversary of the industrial port on the Elbe river – with Lower Saxony’s Minister for Economic Affairs and Transport Olaf Lies and around 100 guests from the maritime sector, industry and politics. “I would like to congratulate Niedersachsen Ports and the Stade seaport not only for the 50th anniversary, but more importantly for extraordinary development and promising future opportunities. With an annual handling volume of nearly seven million tonnes, Stade is an outstanding location in the port group of Lower Saxony,” said Lies.
