Second location in Hamburg: Hertz & Selck expands production and logistics capacities

Hamburg, June 30, 2026 Hamburg-based flavor manufacturer Hertz & Selck is diversifying and investing in sustainable growth. With the opening of a second site in close proximity to Hamburg Airport, the company is significantly expanding its storage and production facilities. This strategic expansion aims to secure global supply chains in the long term and, thanks to its convenient transport connections, optimizes logistics processes for B2B customers in the tobacco, nicotine, and beverage industries.

With this new facility, Hertz & Selck is responding to the continuously increasing demand for premium taste experiences and customized recipes. While the headquarters will continue to focus on R&D, laboratory analysis, and administrative processes, the expansion provides the necessary space for scalable production volumes and modernized manufacturing concepts. The first logistics and administrative units have already moved into the new site; the phased expansion of the production facilities there will be completed gradually.

For B2B customers, this means even greater reliability in raw material supply and shorter lead times in order processing. The immediate proximity to Hamburg Airport also ensures direct express deliveries and international freight routes.

„The opening of our second location is a milestone for our long-term growth strategy in Hamburg,“ explains Heiko Thedens, Marketing Director at Hertz & Selck. „With this, we are not only creating urgently needed space for warehousing and production, but also making a targeted investment in reliability as a partner to our customers. In a volatile market environment, this infrastructure guarantees consistent quality and maximum delivery stability.“
