CEO Angela Titzrath: “In a challenging market environment, HHLA is continuing to pursue its forward-looking investments to modernise its terminals and expand its European network.”

Key Points: 
  • CEO Angela Titzrath: “In a challenging market environment, HHLA is continuing to pursue its forward-looking investments to modernise its terminals and expand its European network.”
    Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) recorded a drop in revenue and earnings in the 2023 financial year.
  • Angela Titzrath, HHLA’s Chief Executive Officer: “In light of the extremely difficult conditions for global trade, HHLA has performed well in 2023, particularly in comparison to its major competitors.
  • The notable increase in throughput volumes at the multi-function terminal HHLA PLT Italy was unable to offset this shortfall.
  • HHLA therefore continues to pursue its dividend policy of distributing between 50 and 70 percent, where possible, of the Port Logistics subgroup’s relevant net profit for the year to its shareholders.
