Bavaria

Bavaria as a logistics location

As the largest state in Germany, Bavaria is one of the most attractive logistics locations and boasts the greatest logistics expertise in terms of both quality and quantity. The logistics sector is one of the most important branches of industry in the federal state and makes the location a worthwhile destination for numerous companies with a turnover of around 30 billion euros and around 400,000 employees at logistics service providers and in-house logistics. Not only do the rail and road networks inspire with excellent connections, the international airports of Nuremberg and Munich are also elementary. The Free State is also known for its economic and political stability.

In addition, Bavaria's population has above-average purchasing power and the density of high-performance logistics companies is high. The central location within Europe also benefits the Free State. Bavaria opens up access to Eastern, Southern and Central Europe and is located at the centre of the Trans-European Networks (TEN). Bavaria's industry alone exports more than 50 percent of its goods abroad every year. Bavaria is also a leader in terms of investment intensity. In the e-commerce sector, the state records annual growth of more than ten percent. A large number of the most important online retailers in the Federal Republic are represented with their logistics. But the increasing supply of highly qualified local specialists is also leading to Bavaria being chosen as a location by more and more logistics companies.

Infrastructure in Bavaria

As confirmed online by the Bavarian Ministry of the Interior, Building and Transport, the volume of goods to be transported is expected to increase by approximately 50 percent by 2025. The base year is 2007, and the increase will be particularly noticeable in transport across the Alps and in north-south traffic. Thanks to abundant ports, freight transport centres and a good rail and road network, the industry benefits from an optimal interconnection of transport modes, which positively shapes the transport infrastructure. The first-class transport infrastructure is one of the reasons why global players have settled in Bavaria alongside many small and medium-sized companies. DPD, Dachser and Co. have their headquarters here, internationally active corporations such as Amazon run their goods distribution centres in Bavaria.

The Bavarian part of the Rhine-Main region impresses with its excellent location in the transport network. The ideal connection to the motorway network via the A 3 Spessart motorway and the A 45 Sauerland line and the port in Aschaffenburg, which is connected to the goods train network of northern German seaports, guarantee the best conditions for successful logistics. The Augsburg hub is equally worthy of mention as a freight transport centre. As an intersection of important rail and road connections, the region is indispensable for freight transport on a national, regional and international level. Hochfranken, on the other hand, is known for its strong industry and serves as a multimodal hub between Eastern and Central Europe. Lower Bavaria, with its proximity to Austria and the Czech Republic, comes into play as a stepping stone to Eastern Europe. The direct connection to the Nuremberg-Passau-Vienna-Budapest railway line, the Danube waterway and motorways 3 and 92 guarantee logistics handling across all modes of transport.
