ITJ 04 / 2025
Dear readers,
There’s never a breather in logistics, as we know all too well – and yet things are coming to a standstill. Ports are overloaded, borders are congested, new tariffs loom. Anyone who still talks about efficiency here either has nerves of steel or a good PR team.
While autonomous boats and digital airports are making headlines, companies struggle with bottlenecks. The infrastructure no longer suffices. Climate targets are under discussion. Where investments are made, other interests quickly get involved, be they geopolitical, economic, digital.
Our supplement on Iberia and Latin America, as always also published in Spanish and Portuguese, shows that there are opportunities. Markets are moving. But if you don’t look closely, you’ll miss dependencies shifting – from ports, platforms, trade axes.
This issue brings together voices and developments that don’t gloss over the cracks. Airfreight is on the verge of change. Algorithms are a powerful influence on business relationships. New hubs are emerging while other regions are falling behind. In short – if you don’t move now, you’ll be left behind.
Keep your eyes peeled and on the ball – and read the ITJ!
