Still and ECE lay foundation stone for new logistics center in Hamburg
Hamburg, 19.10.2016 - Hamburg's Senator for Economic Affairs, Frank Horch, and the head of the Hamburg-Mitte district office, Falko Droßmann, have laid the foundation stone for STILL GmbH's new logistics center in Hamburg together with the Chairman of the STILL Management Board, Dr. Henry Puhl, and ECE CEO Alexander Otto.

In the immediate vicinity of the STILL headquarters, two warehouses with a total area of around 27,000 square meters will be built on a site on Billbrookdeich by the spring of next year. The project is being developed, planned and implemented by the Hamburg-based commercial real estate specialist ECE. The investment volume for the project amounts to around 30 million euros. STILL has signed a long-term lease for the logistics center, which ECE is placing on the investor market.
Flexible, innovative and close to the plant - with this guiding principle, the new STILL logistics center will become the innovative hub of future internal logistics for STILL. The large parts warehouse and vehicle dispatch areas, which were previously decentralized in the Billbrook industrial estate, will be bundled in the new logistics center. With this infrastructure project, STILL is underlining its leading market position in the intelligent management of internal material flows and strengthening its expertise in manufacturing concepts at its own headquarters.
"The new STILL logistics center, for which we are laying the foundation stone today, will be a new milestone for our Hamburg site. It will make us fit for the future by creating the necessary capacity for our targeted growth in the years ahead," emphasizes Dr. Henry Puhl, Chairman of the STILL Management Board.
"STILL is an enormously important player for Hamburg. We are delighted to realize a tailor-made logistics center for the company and thus contribute to securing the location," says ECE CEO Alexander Otto. red
