Port Development and Innnovation
We shape the future of the ports of Bremen
Maritime logistics and cargo handling are changing: we are repeatedly confronted with new demands from our customers at the ports in Bremen and Bremerhaven. We want to remain competitive in the global market sustainably and over the long term. Accordingly, our experts are continuously developing and improving our ports: we analyse the existing structures; we observe the market and other port locations very closely. We are constantly investigating where we can adjust things and where there is hidden potential. Because we want to become even better. We discuss appropriate solutions and are passionate about drawing up carefully considered master plans. And we do all of this to ensure that the ports of Bremen are equipped today to face tomorrow.
Better ports. Stronger economy.
The aim of port development is to strengthen our port locations on a sustainable basis. Regionally and also internationally. We are continually improving our competitive position. We act as pioneers and perform important work for the regional economy and for Germany as an export nation. At the same time, however, we proactively address structural changes in the port and logistics business. The “Future Concept for the Port 2035” drawn up by the Ports Committee of Bremen’s parliament serves as our guideline for all these activities.
Marketing
Do outstanding work and talk about it.
The port is a place where people work with great enthusiasm. And we are the people who talk about it. Our marketing department wants to draw attention to the good work done here at the port and at the business enterprises and organisations at the port and logistics location of Bremen/Bremerhaven. And we are prepared to use any means to do so – whether online, social or print media.
Only together we are strong
The Port Community as an important success factor: We give invisible heroes a face.
We aim to provide both large and small port companies with the perfect platform for exhibiting at trade fairs. bremenports organizes appearances at logistics and transport trade fairs around the world – featuring impressive joint stands – and offers companies an all-inclusive, worry-free package for organizing their exhibition presence. In doing so, we relieve the burden – particularly on small and medium-sized port and logistics companies – allowing them to focus on what matters most to us, too: the customers.
International
Our expertise. For the whole world
The staff of bremenports includes experienced professionals from the fields of engineering, port planning and the environment. Projects at the ports of Bremen, such as Kaiserschleuse lock and Container Terminal 4, ensure that these employees continually widen their knowledge. We wish to share their expertise with the world and help national and international clients with their projects.
We analyse and develop port structures, draw up development plans and provide consulting services based on our comprehensive knowledge of logistics, environmental affairs and port management. We also provide support for our customers in the form of training and education schemes to ensure that future generations receive sound basic and advanced vocational training.

Development, roll-out, maintenance
Our IT department is a cornerstone of our port management activities and also for the entire ports of Bremen.

What’s more, they are already busy today developing solutions for the future to ensure that the ports of Bremen remain competitive in years to come.
Digitisation, automation, artificial intelligence.
The technological revolution is also breaking new ground at the port. And this calls for the support of the entire port community, because the concept of a smart port can only succeed if everyone cooperates to enable network solutions for the whole port.

Real Estate
Management and use of port areas
The ports of Bremen have enormous potential. We manage numerous properties on land and water sites that cover more than 3,100 hectares and particularly appreciate the proximity to our customers. We not only market these properties, but help companies to set up new business locations here. We assist them with planning, manage sites and show them where there is space for exciting new building projects at the ports of Bremen, always within the context of a future-proof port economy.
Prime location. In a good neighbourhood.
Let us find the right place for your company to grow. We will then support and advise you throughout the entire process: from finding a suitable building plot, to the construction phase and right through to the finished building. We plan the necessary compensatory mitigation measures for nature and the environment and negotiate with site owners. Our specialist departments are on hand to contribute their expertise during planning meetings and also liaise with the competent authorities and/or politicians.
