We’re Back!
The return of transport logistic to Munich was marked at a welcoming ceremony yesterday that kicked off with a saxophone solo, setting the tone for the event. The message from the speakers at the event was clear: “we’re back”.
The event, which incorporates air cargo Europe, was a formal opening for a trade fair last held here in 2019. The intervening event was cancelled because of the global Covid pandemic.

Dr Robert Schonberger, exhibition director of air cargo Europe, opened the event before introducing Stefan Rummel, Messe Munchen’s managaing director, and keynote speaker Dr Volker Wissing, the German federal minister for digital and transport.
The two men spoke in detail about the importance of logistics to Germany and the world, giving vital statistics from the transport industry.
The ceremony was attended by scores of visitors and stand holders, who came to mark the occasion. The show was summed up with the motif that nothing moves without logistics.
Prior to the opening ceremony, which was staged in Hall B2, thousands of visitors had streamed in from both ends of the exhibition centre. Many were headed towards air cargo Europe, where the packed halls reflect a growing confidence in the sector, as it rebounds from the impact of the pandemic.
