US: The Port of Hamburg’s marketing organization and the Northern Chamber of Commerce in Szczecin, the largest chamber in Poland, have formalized their cooperation. NCC chamber president Dariusz Wiecaszek and Port of Hamburg Marketing Executive Board Member Ingo Geoff met in Szczecin to sign a cooperation agreement on 10 June
. The two organizations will in future be working closely together on organizing foreign trade and transport events. Exchanging experience on a regular basis, they will also be informing each other on developments in seaborne foreign trade and on questions related to efficient transport routes for Poland’s exports and imports. Against the background of further rising rail freight volumes between Poland’s centres of economic activity and the Port of Hamburg, for Dariusz Wiecaszek and Ingo Egloff one important topic in transport policy is the modernization and expansion of infrastructure. They aim to join forces in devoting special attention to this when planning events.
“Accelerating economic growth in Poland presents the Port of Hamburg with fresh challenges to provide high-performance transport links with the country. I am delighted that we are expanding our network of cooperation partners by agreeing this cooperation with NCC in Poland. With more than 1500 companies represented by NCC plus our own international network, for both organizations we are extending our presence in the market regions of relevance for us and offering our member firms a host of new business contacts,” says Ingo Egloff
