Frankfurt airport is the region’s driving force; it is one of the world’s premier air transport hubs and the largest cargo airport in Europe. The region’s central location and excellent infrastructure as well as its economic strength offer great potential to renowned companies in the logistics and mobility sector. As the host of the leading motor shows IAA and Automechanika, Frankfurt is already the premier meeting point of the automotive industry. All important manufacturers are represented in Frankfurt.
