We are always available to provide expert advice. We address your concerns and offer quick, competent assistance. Your business is our focus; your success is our goal.
The Cuxhaven Economic Development Agency is the regional point of contact for businesses and entrepreneurs regarding all questions and concerns related to funding programs, business development, and economic growth.
Our areas of focus include traditional core industries such as ports and logistics, the fishing and food industries, as well as innovative sectors like pharmaceuticals and biotechnology. In the new energy sector, we have supported the German Offshore Industry Center Cuxhaven on its journey to becoming a leading location in Europe. Last but not least, we have strong networks in traditional economic sectors such as tourism, retail, and skilled trades.
The primary mission of our team as an economic development agency is to sustainably strengthen and further develop Cuxhaven as a business location. We have various tools at our disposal to achieve this. For example, to support and strengthen existing structures; to capitalize on economic opportunities and new technological trends; to provide information on economic policy issues; or to give you a first impression of the many location advantages and high quality of life here on the coast.
With our business services, we offer you expert support to ensure the smooth and successful handling of your needs.
