A well functioning logistics sector is indispensable for the efficiency of other economic sectors. The branch’s responses to pressure on speed and efficiency, highest expectations of quality, as well as the extreme variability of conditions in other parts of the world, have made logistics a high-tech business.

The Logistics Initiative Hamburg is a major industry network. The registered association “Logistik-Initiative Hamburg e.V.” was established by representatives of the business community and the Hamburg State Ministry of Economic and Labour Affairs.
