In line with the majority of the sites developed by Goodman in Germany, the new project in the Port of Hamburg is a brownfield conversion built with high sustainability specifications.The property is expected to obtain a Gold certificate from the German Sustainable Building Council(DGNB) upon completion, which was a key component in Goodman’s ability to secure the land following a tendering process by the Hamburg Port Authority (HPA).

Optimally situated in the southern Port of Hamburg, the extensive transport network supports a broad range of transport modes available in close vicinity of the planned logistics centre. The A1 motorway, located less than two kilometres from the site, and the A7 motorway, within only six kilometres, cover the road network to the south and north.The B73 and B75 trunk roads are also within immediate reach.Moreover, Altenwerder, Burchardkai and Eurokai container terminals are located eight kilometres away. In addition to these excellent transport connections,the property will offer future employees the benefit of approximately120 car parking spaces on site and access to local public transport within walking distance. Prominent neighbours will include Daimler, Airbus, DHL, Kuehne + Nagel, DSV and Rhenus.
