With over 77,000 visitors, 2,722 exhibitors from 73 countries, and an exhibition area of 150,000 square meters, Transport Logistic 2025 has, according to its own statements, set new standards. As Messe München reports, the international leading trade fair for logistics, mobility, IT, and supply chain management has thereby become the largest of its kind worldwide. The proportion of international exhibitors has also significantly increased—to 65 percent.
A signal of the event's high relevance: Federal Minister of Transport Patrick Schnieder opened the fair.
Stefan Rummel, Managing Director of Messe München, emphasized: “Transport Logistic 2025 has impressively
shown the central role logistics plays in our interconnected world. It is the lifeline of the global economy.”
The technological and strategic challenges of the industry were at the center of the event. Digitalization, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and alternative drive systems dominated the conference program. The fair served not only as a stage for innovations but also as a place for strategic exchange and concrete business deals.
Stanislas Brun of Etihad Cargo highlighted the relevance of this year's thematic focuses: “Among the most important topics were artificial intelligence, data-driven logistics, and the expansion of alternative
drive systems.”
Tobias Jerschke of Kühne+Nagel described the fair as a platform that strengthens innovations, identifies market drivers, and promotes customer dialogues.
A significant expansion was observed in the integrated Air Cargo Europe. Due to the increased interest, the air freight sector occupied two halls for the first time. Markus Heinelt from Munich Airport sees this as evidence of air freight's systemic relevance. Arthur Reijnhart from Schiphol Commercial emphasized the role of Transport Logistic as a meeting point for the entire supply chain.
The high quality of the discussions and the strong presence of decision-makers
among the visitors were positively highlighted by numerous companies.
Tobias König of the Rhenus Group spoke of an “indispensable exchange with customers and partners.”
Fred-Markus Bohne of Panattoni also noted: “Many of our meetings took place at the decision-maker level and were accordingly profound.”
Transport Logistic 2025, according to the conclusion of Messe München, confirmed its position as the world-leading trade fair. It is not only a marketplace for products and services but also a catalyst and meeting place for the industry.
The next Transport Logistic will take place from April 26 to 29, 2027,
