Hamburg: Maersk, together with the German project developer bauwo, is building a 20,000 square meter logistics center near Hanover for the storage and handling of electric car batteries and components to produce the batteries. Following the successful launch of a similar facility in Teplice, Czech Republic, in November 2022, the two new halls in Berkhof, directly on the A7 motorway, will further strengthen Maersk's strong position as a logistics partner of the automotive industry.
