Dear Customers,

In newsletter 088/2025, we informed you about the Bremen–Bremerhaven closure, which limited our connections to/from the port of Bremerhaven from October 2 to October 6, 2025.
 
We expected the situation to stabilize, but today brought a series of events that once again disrupted smooth operations in the area of northern German ports.
 
There was a malfunction at railroad crossings in Bremen and Loxstedt, a failure of safety equipment in Oslebshausen, and, unfortunately, a collision between a train and a person in Bremen. The subsequent restrictions have a negative impact on our connections to/from northern German ports. They completely prevent the movement of trains, which makes it impossible for us to pick up import shipments from Hamburg. Several connections therefore had to be completely cancelled.
 
We are working on alternative solutions and improvements to the current situation.
 
If you have specific questions about your shipments, please contact our customer service.
