AIDA CRUISES AND KLOSKA GROUP SECURE FIVE-YEAR PARTNERSHIP EXTENSION

Hamburg/Rostock March 13.th 2025 –

AIDA Cruises, Germany’s premier cruise line, and Basté & Lange GmbH, part of the Kloska Group, are pleased to announce the renewal of their successful partnership for another five years. “This extension reflects our mutual trust and the proven capabilities of our team,” states Nadine Kloska, Managing Partner of the Kloska Group. “We’re responsible for the seamless supply of the entire AIDA fleet, which demands meticulous planning, robust processes, and exceptional flexibility – particularly during the intense double-loading period in October, as the majority of the eleven ships prepare for their global winter deployments.“

To guarantee this efficiency, the Kloska Group invested heavily in logistics optimization last year. This included significant upgrades to their vehicle fleet, the implementation of cutting-edge software solutions, and ongoing refinements to their software workflows. These enhancements ensure the consistent and reliable supply of the AIDA fleet. “Leveraging innovative technology and a solid infrastructure is essential for managing the complex logistics involved and ensuring timely deliveries to our vessels, wherever they may be,” explains Alexander Doden, Managing Director of Basté & Lange GmbH.

The strong relationship between AIDA Cruises and the Kloska Group is built on a foundation of collaborative partnership. Anne Albrecht, Director of Logistics at AIDA Cruises, comments, “For our fleet’s supply needs, we require a partner that consistently delivers the highest quality. We’re delighted to have Basté & Lange GmbH and the Kloska Group on board, a team that shares our commitment to continuous improvement and growth.”
