Strengths [short description]417

Rheinland-Pfalz, situated in the centre-west of Germany, covers an area of 19.847 km² and had a population of 4.035.000 inhabitants in 2002. The infrastructure is well developed with a motorway network and efficient railway links to the rest of the Republic. 2 airports connect the state to international traffic and transport. Additionally the waterways Rhine and Mosel are important in this context.

Rheinland-Pfalz’s export quota is 41%, ranking it first among the German territorial states. Important industrial sectors are the chemical and pharmaceutical industry (BASF), automotive industry, timber processing industry and viniculture (largest wine-growing region in Germany). Moreover, mechanical engineering, high technology companies (the state rank 4th in the top ten European regions with the highest numbers of employees in advanced technology; every eighth employee works in high-tech sector, which includes companies with high R&D budgets) and the predominance of SME characterise the economic structure of the state. According to Eurostat, the state ranks No. 1 among European regions in terms of the number of employees in state-of-the-art technologies. The infrastructure is enhanced by efficient waterways like the rivers Rhine and Mosel. Freight terminals at Koblenz, Trier, Ludwigshafen/Germersheim, Wörth and Mainz-Bingen support transshipment between road, rail and waterway carriers.

The chemical industry is the largest sector as far as sales in manufacturing (40%) and employment (25% of the workforce in manufacturing, 75.000 employees in 2001) are concerned (plastics production and processing is the largest chemical manufacturing sector). It is – like the mechanical engineering sector - characterised by a 90%-SME-structure. The automotive industry is the second largest industry (50.000 employees) after chemicals. It includes companies such as GM's Opel (Kaiserslautern) and DaimlerChrysler as well as about 120 automotive suppliers. The metals and electrical industry holds more than 41% of all industrial employment (122.000 employees). In 2000 sales in this sector made up 37% of total industry sales in the state, even if companies in this sector are smaller compared to other German states.

Geographically, the automotive industry is concentrated in the southern part of the Palatinate, around Kaiserslautern and in Koblenz-Neuwied, the mechanical engineering companies and automotive industry suppliers in the Ludwigshafen-Frankenthal are, the electrical engineering and IT companies in Rheinhessen, suppliers of automotive components, steel fabricators, hardware manufacturers as well as builders of steel and light metal structures in Westerwald, Hunsrueck, Eifel and Trier. Biotechnology is a growing sector of the state’s economy thanks also to the biotechnological know-how of universities and research institutes. Also the media sector increased in Rheinland-Pfalz with the ZDF (Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen), Europe's largest TV network, the SAT1 management and SWR (SüdWest Rundfunk), the state-wide network (both Mainz), the RPR radio (Ludwigshafen), Tecmath AG (Kaiserslautern), RZ-online (Koblenz), SER (Neustadt/Wied), 1&1 Internet AG (Montabaur). Several state sponsored programmes furthermore support the development of the multimedia sector.

Moreover, the service sector is the fastest growing industry in the state and tourism is also an important sector of the state’s economy with 130.000 employees (every 12th workplace is directly or indirectly guaranteed by this sector). With a view to agriculture 43% of the state’s land (of which 1.67 million hectares are dedicated to agriculture and forestry) sustains nearly 40.000 enterprises/farms and a certain agricultural diversity, (meadowlands, harvests of cereals, primarily wheat and barley, wines, vegetables and tobacco). With 6.000 hectares the state ranks third in German fruit production. Nearly 200.000 people (ca. 5 % of the state's population; 85.000 as full-time employees) work in the agricultural sector. Moreover, Rheinland-Pfalz is the biggest wine-producing region in Germany (over 20.000 wine-growers produce around 70% of the total German vintage in six of the 13 German wine-growing regions, 100.000 employees).

The ranking in relevance of the economic sectors in terms of their share of gross value-added in 2001 is manufacturing industries (28,2 mio €), public and private services (20,2 mio €); finance, real estate leasing and corporate services (21 mio €); trade, tourism and transportation (e.g. ‘German wine route’, 14,8 mio €) and agriculture, forestry, fishery (1,2 mio €). In terms of employment the chemical industry ranks first, metal production second, mechanical engineering third, automotive industry fourth and the food and tobacco industry fifth in 2001.
4 universities, 7 public institutes of higher education, 2 Max-Planck institutes, 2 Fraunhofer installations, 20 application and industry-oriented transfer centres, technology agencies associated with chambers of commerce are located here.

In 1999 the state held rank 10 in investment per employee in the processing industry.418

Evolution in last decade [short description]

Employment has been (slightly) growing (1992: 1.684.200, 2002: 1.761.700) and the same holds true for the GDP/per capita (1992: 19.403 €, 2002: 23.038 €).419

Rehinland-Pfalz was traditionally characterised by agriculture and was among the economically weakest German Länder. The structural transformation of the economy has created a rather balanced mix of different economic sectors. Nevertheless, agriculture is still predominant n rural areas.

The move of the Adam Opel AG into the south of the state had a great impact on the development of the entire region as the company is now one of the largest employers in the Pfalz. The transformation of the state into a service oriented economy is well underway. While other businesses were downsizing, the service sector created 64.000 jobs from 1997 to 1999. Moreover, the predominance of SME has contributed to the stable economic development of the state.

Due to the rapid development of new and high-technologies sector the challenges confronting companies, especially manual crafts, in the state have changed significantly in the past years. IT continues to play an ever-growing role.

With former allied forces and German armed forces withdrawing from their previous quarters in the state, circa 500 properties became available for civilian use, but also problems for the economic structure in areas affected by this withdrawing were created with the loss of about 100.000 civil and military posts. Many companies have already exploited the option of acquisition of new properties (e.g. at the former military airports in Hahn, Zweibrücken and Bitburg; at the Ökom Park in Birkenfeld; in the information and communications-oriented PRE-Park in Kaiserslautern). In some of these restructured sites, jobs are being created particularly in the new media sector. Biotechnology, genetic engineering and ICT are prospering sectors as well.

Moreover, after NATO withdrew from Frankfurt-Hahn, its facilities were transformed into the first international airport in Rheinland-Pfalz. Hahn has already become one of Germany’s largest air cargo hubs. Ryanair carrier as well as charter lines provide service to European destinations through its newly-created European hub at Hahn.
