Committed to tradition

For more than 100 years, the name  BAYERISCHER LLOYD,  with its experience in inland shipping on the Danube, Rhine and Main, has been one of the top addresses in Europe’s inland shipping.

In  Wikipedia the following can be read about  BAYERISCHER LLOYD  AG :

“After the southern German Donau-Schifffahrts-Gesellschaft passed into Austrian ownership in 1911, the establishment of Bayerischer Lloyd corresponded to the wish to operate a national shipping company on the Danube again. From 1927 it operated in a joint venture with the First Danube Steamship Company. In 1978 Rhenus-WTAG took over the majority of the shares; significant shares are still held by the federal government and the Free State of Bavaria. [1] The main business of the shipping company with subsidiaries in Hungary, Cyprus, Turkey and Egypt is transport shipping on the Danube and truck traffic. Bayerischer Lloyd also operates storage services and recyclable materials.
Bayerische Lloyd AG stands for the largest shipping group on the Bavarian Danube and one of the market leaders in exchange traffic from the Danube to the Rhine.
Branches and affiliated companies in the Netherlands, Hungary, Serbia and Romania accompany the transports along the waterways in the respective national languages ​​and customer-specific needs.

 

More than 1.5 million tons of goods annually find their way  to their destination via the  BAYERISCHER LLOYD Group. Transport services, storage concepts, combined transports and supply chain solutions are key tasks in the modern transport management of the  BAYERISCHER LLOYD Group.

For the next few years, the  BAYERISCHER LLOYD Group is increasingly focusing on converting its fleet to environmentally friendly forms of propulsion. The acquisition of new buildings and conversions with alternative drive systems is one of the challenges that the  BAYERISCHER LLOYD Group is already facing today.
