HAMBURG SÜD INVESTS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN
"We are thereby investing in the Mediterranean markets that
have traditionally been of strategic importance to Hamburg Süd,"
says Poul Hestbaek, General Manager of Hamburg Süd's Region
Europe. "By having owned organizations, we will now be able to
offer shippers in these countries Hamburg Süd's typical
customer proximity as well as guarantee better and more flexible
service."
In Italy, the new Hamburg Süd organization already started
work at its headquarters in Genoa at the beginning of January, with
branch offices located in Livorno and Salerno. Gianluca Sussone
heads Hamburg Süd Italia.
The head office of the new organization in Spain is based in
Barcelona. In addition to an existing branch office in Valencia, new
branches have been opened in Bilbao, Vigo, and Madrid to serve local
customers and acquire new business. Hamburg Süd Iberia is under
the leadership of Juan Pedro Alfaro.
The head office of the new Hamburg Süd organization in
Egypt is based in Alexandria including a bonded depot operation
servicing all Maersk brands. A branch office is located in Cairo. In
addition, port offices are based in Port Said and Damietta. The head
of Hamburg Süd Egypt is Prashant Poduval.

"Hamburg Süd is now exclusively represented by its own
offices in Italy and Spain after business was previously partially
handled by agents and joint-venture organizations. Furthermore, in
Egypt the company has taken full management of Hamburg Süd
Egypt."
