ZDS: for more government funds

03.02.2025
HAMBURG. In December, Angela Titzrath, President of the Association of German Seaport Operators (ZDS), informed the German government in no uncertain terms that the states will need 500 million euros annually to ensure basic funding for the German seaports in the future. “A new government will need to enshrine that in its governing programme,” emphasised Titzrath at the ZDS annual press conference in Hamburg. “Whether it’s a secure supply, industrial success, the energy transition or the turning point, Germany’s future will also be decided at the seaports,” she warned with a sense of urgency.
