Logistics Region Frankfurt/Rhine-Main

With Germany's largest cargo airport, Rhine-Main is one of Europe's most important logistics locations. A central position, high purchasing power and broad demand from air cargo, industry and retail meet one of the country's most competitive markets for space.

Location and access

The A3 and A5 meet at the Frankfurt interchange, supplemented by the A45, A60, A66 and A67. Frankfurt Airport is Germany's largest cargo airport. The Rhine and Main add several ports, and the dense rail network connects to the whole of Europe.

Demand

Air cargo, forwarders and international logistics providers shape the market. Pharma and chemicals, for example at Industriepark Höchst, the automotive industry in Rüsselsheim, and retail and e-commerce add demand. Many companies manage their European distribution from here.

Clusters

The airport with CargoCity South and North is the heart of the region. Kelsterbach, Raunheim, Rüsselsheim and Mörfelden-Walldorf serve air cargo and contract logistics. To the east lie Hanau, Erlensee and Langenselbold, partly on former military land. The south, with Groß-Gerau, Gernsheim and the Ried, offers larger sites, as does the Wetterau to the north.

Outlook

Land is very scarce, and data centres compete for sites and push up land prices. New potential comes from conversion, redevelopment and denser construction. With air cargo, pharma and e-commerce, Rhine-Main remains in international demand.

„Rhine-Main is Germany's air cargo gateway and one of the most competitive logistics markets in the country. Here, access to space before it reaches the market decides the success of a site search or an investment.“
