In the bustling world of German logistics, Eduard Dubbers-Albrecht, managing partner of Ipsen Logistics Holding GmbH & Co.KG, has made a significant impact. Now, he is set to shape the future of Bremen's harbor and logistics sector as the new board member and spokesman of the Bremen Harbor and Logistics Association (BHV).
As a seasoned executive, Dubbers-Albrecht has been appointed to the BHV's executive board, and he will also serve as the association's spokesperson, positioning him as a key public representative.
Dubbers-Albrecht's influence extends beyond his operational role. He has been a vocal advocate for digital transformation within port logistics, championing the adoption of new digital procedures for container release and tracking.

In his capacity as the President of the Bremen Chamber of Commerce, Dubbers-Albrecht has also been instrumental in fostering north German port cooperation. He emphasizes the importance of regional stakeholders collaborating and adapting to new technological standards.
The BHV, with Dubbers-Albrecht at its helm, will continue to contribute its expertise in breakbulk and project logistics as a partner of the annual LogisticsConnect trade fair. The association represents approximately 220 companies in the logistics, harbor, and transport industries.
The BHV's new board also includes Dr.-Ing. Patric Drewes and Christoph Holtkemper, who will continue to serve as the treasurer. Jens Juknischke, Patrick Rehberg, and Stefan Schultze remain on the managing board. Carsten Wendt, head of sales at the Bremen-based Wallenius Wilhelmsen shipping company, has also joined the board, with a focus on advancing RoRo shipping, high-&-heavy, and breakbulk sectors.
As the BHV bids farewell to Christoph Bruns and Werner Pöser, who have left the board, the association acknowledges their long-standing commitment to its development. Patric Drewes honoured their contributions, expressing gratitude for their significant role in shaping the BHV.
