Quehenberger Logistics DE GmbH has been named the semi-exclusive Germany member of the Project Freight Network (PFN), reinforcing Germany’s strategic role in global heavy and project cargo movements.
The Project Freight Network (PFN) announced on August 6 that Quehenberger Logistics DE has joined its ranks as the sole representative for Germany. This partnership highlights the growing importance of coordinated, high-standard project logistics in Europe’s largest economy. With Germany being a hub for industrial exports—including heavy machinery, energy infrastructure, and aerospace components—the appointment is seen as a calculated move to strengthen PFN’s coverage in a key region.
Precision Logistics for a Complex Cargo Landscape
Germany’s industrial backbone generates consistent demand for project cargo services that go far beyond conventional freight forwarding. Oversized loads and high-value components require specialized handling, engineering expertise, and compliance with strict regulatory procedures. This is the space where Quehenberger has proven itself.
The company is recognized for its in-depth planning capabilities, transport engineering acumen, and hands-on management of technically complex shipments. With this appointment, PFN gains a German partner capable of delivering the precision and reliability expected in project logistics—especially in sectors like energy, aerospace, and manufacturing, where transport errors are costly and downtime is unacceptable.
Local Knowledge, National Reach
Operating throughout Germany’s major industrial corridors—from Hamburg’s port facilities to the manufacturing zones of Bavaria and the Ruhr—Quehenberger Logistics is embedded within the national logistics fabric. Their project teams provide end-to-end service, including inland pre-carriage, RoRo handling at seaports, and multimodal rail-road integrations.
The firm’s ability to navigate the country’s permitting landscape, infrastructure constraints, and regional nuances gives it a competitive edge. Clients benefit from direct contact with experienced project managers, 24/7 operations support, and real-time shipment tracking—a level of service increasingly demanded by industries with tight deadlines and minimal room for error.
Compliance and Quality as Standard
Quehenberger’s adherence to international quality and safety standards adds another layer of credibility to its PFN membership. The company is certified under ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001, and holds Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) status. These certifications underscore its commitment to sustainable operations, workplace safety, and customs efficiency.
In an industry where “trust but verify” is a working principle, Quehenberger’s transparency, structured communication, and engineering-based methodology set it apart. These qualities made the company a natural fit for PFN, a network that prioritizes collaboration, openness, and consistency among its global members.
With this development, PFN enhances its presence in the heart of Europe’s industrial engine, while Quehenberger gains new international alignment with like-minded project cargo specialists.
