All press releases

At 6 o’clock this morning, BLG AutoTerminal Bremerhaven started operations with a new vehicle model. The BMW iX3 is the first fully electric SUV from the car manufacturer, and is scheduled for market launch shortly.

Since November, BLG LOGISTICS has been the new logistics partner of the HALLHUBER fashion label. The logistics service provider headquartered in Bremen has entered into a long-term contract, which also includes value-added services, with the Munich fashion label HALLHUBER who is known for their outerwear, shoes, and accessories. BLG Sports & Fashion Logistics provides all services in its multi-user logistics center in the town of Hörsel, Germany. 

The seaport and logistics service provider BLG LOGISTICS now operates a new center in Ludwigsfelde, approx. 30 km south of Berlin. On behalf of Siemens Energy, the company delivers spare parts to gas and steam turbines around the globe.

As part of the ”FastLane” project, the logistics service provider has teamed up with container technology company SecureSystem to test a newly developed service for smooth, fast and secure container transport. The approach is designed to cut customs clearance times in destination ports and simplify the entire customs process. The innovation team at BLG LOGISTICS is shipping 20 containers fitted with a sensor system from SecureSystem to the U.S.

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has recognized the targets of BLG LOGISTICS to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions in absolute terms. That makes BLG LOGISTICS the first German logistics service provider and the first company in Bremen with scientifically recognized climate protection targets.

After Jens Bieniek elected not to renew his contract as CFO of BLG LOGISTICS at the beginning of the year, the 56-year-old is handing over the reins to Christine Hein. She was officially appointed a member of the Board of Management as from November 1, 2020. Following a transition phase, Jens Bieniek will leave the company at the latest by the end of the year to take up new challenges. At that point, Christine Hein will fully take over responsibility for finances at the company.

BLG LOGISTICS plans to be climate-neutral by 2030.
