HAMBURG/BRAUNSCHWEIG. Hamburger Hafen und Logistik (HHLA) and the Braunschweig port operations company have signed up to a strategic partnership to promote inland shipping for container hinterland traffic between the two ports. For the roughly 180 kilometres between Hamburg and Braunschweig, which is too short a distance for rail, inland waterway vessels with a transit time of 24 hours can be a viable alternative to container transport by road. In 2019, 70,000 TEUs were moved between the ports via inland waterways.
J. MÜLLER: Successful end of apprenticeship project
BRAKE. In late June, J. MÜLLER announced: “The cameras have been switched off, the editing done – the short films for our ‘Lebenswelten’ training project are ready!” The project looks at the different cultural and national identities of staff, who all tell their own story. The project not only contributed towards promoting integration but also strengthened the commitment of the trainees,” said Antje Streicher, Human Resources Manager at J. Müller. Since then, the films have been shown during internal and public events as well as on J. MÜLLER social media channels.
