Forecast: Gross Weight of Seaborne Goods Handled in Germany

The forecast for the gross weight of seaborne goods handled in Germany shows a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028, with year-on-year decreases ranging between -1.4% and -2%. This reflects a steady downtrend in the volume of goods managed, suggesting possible challenges in the maritime sector or broader economic factors influencing trade volumes. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period is also negative, signaling an overall contraction in the handling of seaborne goods.

Future trends to watch for:

• Potential changes in global trade policies and agreements affecting Germany's maritime logistics.
