Ismaning near Munich/Berlin, July 9, 2025 – Patrick Schnieder (CDU), German Federal Minister of Transport, has assumed patronage of the Logistics Hall of Fame. With this, the Federal Ministry of Transport continues its commitment to the international logistics hall of fame, which has been in place since 2009.
"The logistics industry is one of the largest economic sectors in our country and ensures our daily supply of goods. The Logistics Hall of Fame makes the achievements of the sector visible and places a spotlight on the people who advance logistics with innovation and responsibility. I am very pleased to support this cause," says Federal Minister of Transport Patrick Schnieder.
The Logistics Hall of Fame honors individuals who have made exceptional contributions to the advancement and public perception of logistics. By taking on the patronage, the Federal Ministry of Transport emphasizes the high societal and economic importance of the industry.
