Hellmann Worldwide Logistics closed fiscal year 2025 with Group revenue of EUR 3.7 bn, compared to EUR 3.8 bn in the prior year, while total shipments increased slightly year over year to around 21 mio. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite a persistently difficult global market environment, Hellmann delivered a solid result regardless of geopolitical tensions, subdued global trade, and ongoing pressure on logistics margins. The increase in shipments reflects volume growth above the market and further gains in market share, driven by Hellmann\u2019s strategic focus and close customer relationships. Against this background, the company remained focused on adjusting its cost structure and further improving efficiency across the organization, which contributed to a slight improvement in the equity ratio. This underscores Hellmann\u2019s strong balance sheet and provides a solid foundation to reinforce strategic flexibility and invest in future growth.<\/p>\n

With the introduction of its growth strategy Forward2030, the company set a clear strategic direction and established a strong platform to navigate dynamic markets in the years ahead. Hellmann continued to systematically expand its product portfolio, particularly in E commerce logistics, supported by flagship initiatives, such as the partnership between Hellmann and SkyNet and their new joint cross border E commerce solution \u201cnear\u201d. At the same time, the company further strengthened its international footprint by establishing a new country organization in Colombia and opening new locations in key markets. This growth trajectory continues in 2026, as evidenced, for example, by the recently announced automotive joint venture with Motherson.<\/p>\n

Hellmann also advanced its sustainability agenda in 2025, publishing its Sustainability Report with defined CO\u2082 targets and in alignment with key CSRD principles.<\/p>\n

\u201c2025 was characterized by a very demanding market environment. In this context, I am proud of what our global team has achieved together. We have delivered solid operational performance while, at the same time, setting a clear strategic course through Forward2030, with a strong emphasis on customer centricity. The foundations are in place, our priorities are defined and we are well positioned to capture growth opportunities in the years ahead,\u201d said Jens Drewes, CEO Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaintaining stable revenue and improving our equity ratio in such a volatile environment is a clear sign of our financial discipline and resilience. Our strong cost management and solid balance sheet give us the flexibility to continue investing in growth, innovation, and digital capabilities. This financial stability is a key enabler for executing our strategy and further strengthening Hellmann\u2019s market position,\u201d adds Martin Eberle, CFO Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.<\/p>\n
