Moving Forward Together
Editorial by our CEO Rolf Habben Jansen
Partnerships are part of our DNA at Hapag-Lloyd.
This issue of “Logbook” is built on a shared belief: that partnerships move us forward – especially in times like these. From geopolitical tensions to the crisis in the Middle East, global supply chains remain under pressure. Uncertainty has become part of everyday life in shipping.
What makes the difference is how we respond – and who we work with. No company can manage today’s complexities alone. It takes strong partnerships built on trust, shared responsibility and a common goal.
This is nothing new at Hapag-Lloyd, as partnerships have shaped our company for generations. They are part of how we think and act – across teams, with customers and alongside partners around the world. This spirit has guided us for generations and continues to define who we are today.
Our main story, “Synergy at Sea,” brings this to life through the Gemini Cooperation. It shows how close collaboration can create stability, strengthen networks and deliver reliability for our customers.
As you explore this issue, you will see many more examples of how partnerships make a difference – at sea and on shore. After all, progress is ultimately never a solo journey. It’s something we build together.
