The company's German facilities in Hamburg took care of 6,071k 20's, a decrease of 4.1% year-on-year.

HHLA's other sea container terminals handled 326k TEUs (-47% yoy), a drop primarily attributed to the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine and the subsequent closure of the company's facility in Odesa.

On the other hand, HHLA's intermodal division carried more containers last year, up 0.2% yoy to 1,694k TEUs. Railborne volumes totalled 1,409k (+2.2% yoy), while road 285k TEUs (-8.7% yoy).

"With our European logistics network, which includes seaports, the hinterland and rail networks, HHLA reliably fulfils its remit to ensure secure supply within Germany and Europe. We also managed to fulfil this remit during the challenging 2022 financial year, which was dominated by the impacts of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine and disruptions to the global supply chain. In spite of this, HHLA achieved a good result and proved its efficiency," Angela Titzrath, HHLA's CEO, commented.

She furthered, "We are once again facing a year of much uncertainty, but working in logistics means being able to deal with volatility. We are looking ahead to the year with confidence and courage and will continue to push ahead with our investments in sustainable and innovative logistics solutions in order to reinforce the future viability of HHLA."
