Successful first six months

04.11.2025
BREMEN. The ports of Bremen were able to increase total seaborne cargo transshipment by 5.3 per cent to 32.6 million tonnes during the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Container handling was up by 8.8 per cent to 2.4 million TEU, while the handling of bulk goods rose slightly by 0.5 per cent. At 600,000 vehicles, handling in Bremerhaven was virtually on par with the previous year despite the prevailing weakness in German car exports. For non-containerised general cargo, bremenports reported a six per cent rise to a total of 28.7 million tonnes, including 1.4 million tonnes of vehicles. This positive result was partly influenced by the rise (six per cent) in dry bulk handling to around 3.4 million tonnes. At 550,000 tonnes, Bremen recorded a 23.7 per cent fall in the handling of liquid bulk goods – this trend is echoed in many European ports.
