Hagen lies on the southern edge of the Ruhr region and, where the A1, A45 and A46 meet, is one of the best-connected logistics locations in North Rhine-Westphalia. As the gateway to the Sauerland and the link between the Ruhr region and South Westphalia, Hagen offers distribution options few locations can match.
Freight Hagen – Affordable and Reliable
Freight Forwarding Hagen – logistics at the southern Ruhr region entrance Hagen, with around 190,000 inhabitants, is one of the more significant cities in the southern Ruhr region and serves as a hinge between the industrial landscape of the Ruhr area and the SME-characterised Südwestfalen region. This geographical position makes Hagen particularly interesting for freight forwarding customers: those who produce in the Ruhr region and buy in the Sauerland – or vice versa – find an ideal transshipment and distribution point in Hagen. Hagen's economy is characterised by industrial and metal processing. The city and its surroundings are home to numerous companies in steel and metal processing, wire and cable production (a historically significant centre), plastics processing and mechanical engineering. The Hagen motorway triangle – formed by A1 (Hamburg–Cologne), A45 (Dortmund–Frankfurt, the "Sauerland line") and A46 (towards Düsseldorf) – is one of the most important transport infrastructures in western Germany. No other location in the Ruhr region combines three motorways so compactly. For logistics operators this means: minimal detour distances in almost all directions and short empty mileage times.
