Joachim Holstein has worked for nearly thirty years at HTAG Häfen und Transport AG, ten of which he served as a member of the board. Most recently, he was the managing director of HGK Dry Shipping GmbH. In this role, he was significantly responsible for the spin-off of HTAG’s inland navigation activities and their integration into HGK Dry Shipping.

Recognized Expert in Inland Navigation

With his many years of expertise and competence, he will sustainably strengthen the connection between duisport and our customers as well as the Rhine ports. We are pleased that we were able to bring him on board for this important position and wish him much success,” says board member Lars Nennhaus on behalf of the entire duisport board.
