Subdued expectations for the future

BREMEN. The flash survey published in June by BHV – Bremischen Hafen- und Logistikvertretung – did not show a clear trend. “Around one third of the companies that took part in the survey expect sales to decline, remain on par with the previous year or increase,” said BHV Director Petra Lüdeke (left), summarising the mixed feelings and subdued expectations of the 75 surveyed Bremen companies. However, they were very clear in their demands on Bremen’s state politicians: “Over three-quarters of the companies expect the state of Bremen to join forces with the other northern German federal states for important hinterland connections as well as upgrading or planning for replacing the regional infrastructure,” stated Werner Pöser (right), managing board and executive committee member of BHV. “We can only do it together!”
