BREMEN. Despite geopolitical crises, a weakening German economy and ongoing uncertainties in global trade, the BLG Logistics Group has closed its 2025 financial year on a stable note. Turnover amounted to 1.2 billion euros, 4.5 per cent below the previous year’s figure. Commenting on the results at the annual press conference in late April, BLG CEO Matthias Magnor emphasised that the company had performed better than initially expected. Although EBIT fell to €87.2 million, it was still above budgeted figures and represented “a very solid result in a thoroughly difficult market”. According to the figures, BLG’s three business divisions performed differently. The Container segment made a significant contribution to the overall result in 2025. The investment in Eurogate, accounted for using the equity method, generated a profit after tax of €56.6 million. Influenced by economic developments, structural change in the automotive industry and US tariffs, turnover in the Automotive division fell to €678 million (previous year: €687.5 million). However, earnings were still able to increase. In the Contract division, turnover fell from €535.6 million to €488.4 million. Magnor cited subdued demand, particularly in automotive parts logistics and industrial contract logistics, as the reasons for this.
