Furthermore, the Supervisory Board has extended the contract of Angela Titzrath, who has served on HHLA’s Executive Board since 1 October 2016 and assumed the role of CEO on 1 January 2017. Titzrath’s contract has been prolonged by five years.

Prof. Dr. Rüdiger Grube, chairman of HHLA’s Supervisory Board, commented, “In recent years, HHLA has successfully transformed itself into an internationally networked logistics group. Logistics is facing considerable challenges worldwide, which will also place demands on HHLA. I am delighted that Angela Titzrath is willing to continue to lead HHLA in the coming years. We are very pleased to maintain our cooperation. With Annette Walter, a CFO with comprehensive expertise in all key areas for HHLA, particularly when it comes to financing strategy, controlling and M&A, is joining the company.

We are convinced that she will contribute these experiences to the benefit of HHLA.”
