Calender Icon 19. June 2026

As part of the Hanseatic Business Forum at the 46th International Hanseatic Day in Stargard, the Hansa Export Award was presented for the first time on 12 June. An international jury had previously selected the five finalists from among all the candidates. The winner was chosen by the audience via a live vote during the forum. The Hansa Export Award puts business as a core theme back at the heart of the Union of Cities THE HANSA.

The Hansa Export Award recognises companies for innovation, growth and outstanding achievements in international trade. It thus builds on the rich economic heritage of the Hanseatic League whilst simultaneously raising the profile of the Hanseatic region as a modern centre for international trade. Each member city of the Union of Cities THE HANSA could nominate one company for the award.

The following companies were selected by the jury for the final round in Stargard:

Baader (Lübeck/DE and Doesburg/NL)
Condensator Dominit (Brilon/DE)
EcoReadyBath (Stargard/PL)
Forest Group (Deventer/NL)
TZMO Group (Torun/PL)

The finalists introduced themselves to the audience at the Hanseatic Business Forum with a short video and an elevator pitch. EcoReadyBath ultimately came out on top in the live vote by the audience. THE HANSA would like to thank all the Hanseatic cities and companies that took part in the competition.
