Hoerner to lead EFIP
The European Federation of Inland Ports elected Roland Hoerner president during its general assembly Thursday.
Hoerner has been managing director of the Germany's Port of Mannheim since 1998 and is vice president of the German Inland Ports Association. He will take over from Willy Robijns, who has been chairing EFIP since 2006.
EFIP also welcomed its newest member, the Hungarian Port of Paks. Paksport is located on the right bank of the Danube and services as an agri-logistic hub. Started in 1993, the port is among the largest agri-bulk operators in Hungary.
