The end of a long cooperation between O. Brunoni S.A. and Hamburg Süd
Dear Customers,
After almost 30 years of successful cooperation with Hamburg Süd, our collaboration has ended on October 31, 2023.
After Maersk took over Hamburg Süd in 2017, it was decided at the beginning of this year to switch from dual branding to one-brand-strategy and merge the two organizations and continue working under one brand in the future.
O. Brunoni S.A. has been appointed as agents by Hamburg Süd in the 1990’s and over the years we managed to grow and steadily built up our business. At its peak, O. Brunoni S.A. employed around 30 people for this line and generated a volume of about 100,000TEU per year.
The decision to fully integrate Hamburg Süd into Maersk Group is a heavy hit for us as a company, although the development has been foreseeable in recent years. The change has forced us to adapt our organizational structures accordingly and to let go of long-standing and loyal employees who have served Hamburg Süd and our company for many years.
We look back on an exciting and eventful time and would like to thank all those involved and especially you, our valued customers, for your loyalty and support.
While we are still in the process of finalizing the Hamburg Süd line, we are working in parallel on something new that you will soon benefit from.
We are already looking forward to a new ride and will keep you updated.
Best regards,
Your Brunoni Team
