Matthias Lappe is probably a bit jealous of Saxony-Anhalt these days when Daimler Truck puts its logistics center into operation in Halberstadt. Not because of the warehouses or the special traffic connection, also not because of the property prices or the power supply, but because of the planning time. In just two and a half years, the truck manufacturer put its plans into practice – from the first idea to commissioning. The head of the Stuttgart cable specialist Lapp could be jealous because he also builds a new logistics center. He laid the foundation for this in November in Ludwigsburg- after a planning and approval period of more than four years. The new center should go into operation in 2027. The example of Daimler Truck in Halberstadt is so unusual because companies usually have Matthias Lapp’s experiences that summarizes his anger as follows: “New investments are already in interest, but then the big one comes up, and there are regulations and a lot of bureaucracy.” Is when the authorities cooperate and search for solutions together. It is not about softening the specifications or the grinding of rules, but rather about reconciling economical concerns praying with the interests of all other participants. The handling of the more than 5000 year old tomb shows exactly: The Archeology officers have found a solution to secure the valuable finds for science without endangering the overall project. When would Matthias Lapp probably put his sales center into operation if a Stone Age grave had also been discovered in Ludwigsburg? More on the subject of and something is unusual: Daimler Truck was received by children’s choirs in Saxony-Anhalt. The song “Bee Summ, Summ, Summ” reversed the singers into “Daimler Truck Brumm, Brumm, Brumm”. This is more than a nice anecdote: because the success of a settlement is always based on the acceptance of the citizens. Against the background, a successful location policy not only needs pragmatic authorities, but also open people.
