The Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine (AMCU) has approved the acquisition of Eurobridge Intermodal Terminal LLC's intermodal terminal in Batiovo (Zakarpattia region) by the German logistics company Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA).

This was reported by the CFTS portal, citing the Minprom publication.

The approval was published on the AMCU’s website on 7 August.

The new terminal will operate under the name HHLA Eurobridge Batiovo as a joint venture between HHLA International GmbH and Fortior Capital LLC, a Ukrainian investment company.

HHLA will hold a controlling stake and, together with its subsidiary METRANS, will continue to develop the terminal.

The HHLA Eurobridge Batiovo terminal is located near the EU border, at the intersection of several international rail corridors connecting Ukraine, Hungary, and Slovakia.

With access to both standard-gauge (1435 mm) and broad-gauge (1520 mm) tracks, the terminal offers a good solution for connecting European and Ukrainian logistics networks.
