BREMEN. Bremen ports and the most densely populated German state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) could work together even more closely in the future and both reap the benefits of doing so. To make the public aware of this possible development, an exchange of views took place with the Minister-President of NRW Hendrik Wüst and Dr Patric Drewes, executive board member of BHV – Bremischen Hafen und Logistikvertretung (BHV), Petra Lüdeke, Managing Director of BHV, as well as other representatives from industry from this two-port federal state. CDU politician Wüst accepted the invitation from Frank Imhoff, the president of the Bremischen Bürgerschaft, literally the Citizenry of Bremen. Drewes also used this opportunity to hand over a thesis to the head of state of NRW.
