THE Azerbaijan Railways CJSC and the German Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG intend to establish a co-op in container transportation, reports Baku's AzerNews.
The matter was discussed at a meeting between Azerbaijan Railway first deputy chairman Alirza Suleymanov and representatives of the German companies operating in transport, logistics, and construction.
The parties focused on new opportunities for new bilateral business cooperation during the meeting.
Mr Suleymanov declared that various German companies are involved in the design, supply, and installation works of the Azerbaijan Railways.
Mr Suleymanov noted that cooperation can be established with a subsidiary of Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG - Metrans, to transit containerised cargo through Azerbaijan from Europe to Central Asia and China, and in the opposite direction.
Metrans could deliver containers to Turkey's seaports and send them from there along the Azerbaijan-Central Asia-China route through the subsidiary of Azerbaijan Railways- ADY Container LLC.
German-Azerbaijani Chamber of Commerce executive director Tobias Baumann reiterated that his organisation supports the expansion of cooperation with companies operating in the field of services in Azerbaijan.
The meeting also discussed large-scale construction work in Azerbaijan's liberated territories, including railway projects.
Azerbaijan is the main economic and trade partner of Germany in the South Caucasus with a trade turnover between two amounting to US$817.5 million in 2020.
The trade turnover between the two countries amounted to $714.2 million from January to September 2021.
