BHV has its hand on the pulse

BHV mit der Hand am Puls

BREMEN. BHV – Bremische Hafen- und Logistikvertretung has its hand on the pulse, demonstrated twice in June with “Project Logistics Monitor 2023” and the “Quick survey”. According to the “Project Logistics Monitor”, 2022 was better than the previous year for nearly 75 per cent of the project logistics experts surveyed by BHV. And nearly half of them expect the market to continue growing in 2023. “But the shortage of skilled staff, which is the issue most often mentioned by survey participants, is now in full force in project logistics,” said Dr Patric Drewes (l), executive member of the BHV management board. He warned against excessive optimism. At the same time, the “Quick survey”, completed by BHV member companies, revealed that cost pressure and the shortage of skilled staff now have the largest impact on companies in Bremen’s logistics industry, which is largely shaped by the maritime sector. “75 per cent of survey participants complain about general price hikes and the associated cost pressure. Nevertheless, business prospects continue to be positive,” added Werner Pöser (r), who is also an executive member of the BHV board. The results of the two surveys are available at www.bhv-bremen.de
