Aller guten Dinge sind DREI: Erneut der Platz 1 für den HANSA-PARK im Branchenranking der Studie „Deutschlands Fairste 2024”

Das F.A.Z.-Institut hat erneut verschiedene Unternehmen mit dem Zertifikat „Deutschlands Fairste 2024“ ausgezeichnet. Die Studie befasst sich mit der Performance eines Unternehmens anhand der Betrachtung der „Fairness“ aus verschiedenen Perspektiven.

Die Studie honoriert jene Unternehmen, die in Punkto Produkte und Service, Preis-Leistung, Kundenzufriedenheit, Arbeitgeber-Fairness und Nachhaltigkeit mit ihrer „Fairness“ überzeugen konnten. Hierfür wurden mit Hilfe eines Social Listenings 15 Millionen Nennungen zu den etwa 12.000 untersuchten Unternehmen im Zeitraum vom 01. Januar 2022 bis 31. Dezember 2023 identifiziert, zugeordnet und ausgewertet.

Dabei erzielte der HANSA-PARK erneut 100 von 100 möglichen Punkten und erreichte im Branchenranking der Themen- und Freizeitparks das dritte Jahr in Folge den 1. Platz und die Auszeichnung „Deutschlands Fairste“ bereits zum vierten Mal.

Ein wichtiger Bestandteil der „Fairness“ ist für uns der Grundsatz der Gleichberechtigung: Für Spontanbesucher, die sich erst vor Ort entscheiden, erheben wir keinen Aufpreis. Unsere Tagestickets sind an keinen speziellen Besuchstag gebunden. Und bei Nichtnutzung, können die Tickets mit ihrem vollen Nennwert im Folgejahr auf den dann gültigen Tagesticketpreis angerechnet werden. Für uns als HANSA-PARK Familie steht der Gast im Mittelpunkt und wir freuen uns sehr darüber, dass diese Auszeichnung uns in diesem Bestreben bestätigt.

4 years in a row: HANSA-PARK once again awarded the Germany's Best in Sustainability Seal!

4 years in a row: HANSA-PARK once again awarded the Germany's Best in Sustainability Seal!

When it comes to sustainability, HANSA-PARK belongs to an illustrious circle:  For the fourth consecutive year the Park has been awarded the Germany's Best in Sustainability Seal. Only very few businesses ever achieve that feat.
Deutschland Test und Focus Money asked the Institute of Management and Business Surveys (IMWF) to conduct the Germany's Best in Sustainability survey. From 01 May 2022 to 30 April 2023 some 19,600 brands and businesses as well as some 4 million comments were analysed and evaluated.

The survey was conducted to rate the high ecological, economic and social responsibility today’s businesses have towards future generations. It has become increasingly important to many customers that businesses acknowledge and take that responsibility seriously. Sustainability plays an ever greater role in purchase decisions. The above survey takes account of that; customers were asked to relay their personal sustainability experiences with businesses through comments.

The most recent sustainability survey conducted by Focus Money put family-managed HANSA-PARK highest in this year’s German amusement park ranking, with the Park scoring 100 out of 100 points. It is the second time that the Park has taken the top spot on the amusement park rostrum since 2020.

“We and our HANSA-PARK ‘happy maker’ team are particularly thrilled about the ranking because it clearly shows that it didn’t go unnoticed with our guests just how important sustainability is to the Park and its employees. To receive that award for the fourth consecutive time is testament to the holistic, long-term social, economic and ecological concept we have put in place and our motivation to stay the course,” says Christoph Andreas Leicht, managing shareholder of HANSA-PARK.

The travel experts have decided: HANSA-PARK is Germany’s second-best amusement park!

The travel experts have decided: HANSA-PARK is Germany’s second-best amusement park!

In an amusement park survey conducted in 2023 the travel experts of the Travelcircus booking platform rated Germany’s 45 most popular amusement parks. 25 parks made the ranking of Germany’s best amusement parks in 2023.

The ranking is based on five indicators: price-performance ratio, visitor ratings, popularity, fun factor for each age and Instagram representing guests’ interaction in social media. The maximum number of points that can be achieved in each category is 5.

At 21.30 of 25 possible points HANSA-PARK garnered 2nd place.

HANSA-PARK ranks 7th when it comes to entrance ticket prices.

As part of the ranking Travelcircus awarded HANSA-PARK additional ‘tops’: Top Rollercoaster, Top Water Attractions and Top Instagram.

Managing Director Andreas Leicht is especially happy for HANSA-PARK’s ‘happy maker’ team - in other words all employees of HANSA-PARK - who have a big share in the rating awarded by the Travelcircus experts:

“It’s in our DNA to make constant changes and improvements for our guests. We invest in HANSE and high tech.  We live responsibility and never cease to be committed. We keep traditions alive without foregoing the benefits of digital technology. All of us are so happy about the Travelcircus amusement park rating, which has continually improved over the years. It shows that our efforts are appreciated.”

Awarded for Excellence! “Highest Quality” certificate and First Place in the amusement park ranking for HANSA-PARK!

Awarded for Excellence! “Highest Quality” certificate and First Place in the amusement park ranking for HANSA-PARK!

Be it the usefulness of a product or the quality of a service, quality is an indispensable corporate success factor. It also plays a role when it comes to how customers perceive a company and features heavily in any purchase decision. The more exchangeable the products and services in a fiercely competitive environment are, the truer this is.

On behalf of the F.A.Z.-Institute the Institute for Management and Economic Research (IMWF) carried out a study this year that analyses corporate quality. Over 19,000 companies were examined and data from more than 100 million online sources were collected based on the social listening procedure. In addition, the institute evaluated a comprehensive online questionnaire.

According to the IMWF, “Product and service quality, which includes service aspects such as ‘easily reachable’ and ‘highly competent’ as well as unbureaucratic and fast claim processing, is of great significance to companies. If they manage to convince customers in these areas, customers may be willing to pay more readily [for their services].”

Only two German theme and leisure parks have received an award in the amusement park ranking. One of them was HANSA-PARK in Sierksdorf that scored 100 points - the highest possible score - and took 1st place, followed by Europapark in Rust that scored 74.5 points.

“We are enormously proud of having been awarded the Highest Quality certificate. There is hardly any better reward for our efforts to advance in all directions, and it shows that our understanding of quality is shared by our customers,” says Christoph Andreas Leicht, Managing Shareholder of HANSA-PARK.

HANSA-PARK continues to invest in the Park to make it yet more attractive to its guests. Among others, the Park will soon feature an all-new, very special carousel. Called Carousel Baltique, it will be the Park’s 41st ride and complete the trifecta of ride attractions at the HANSEATIC LEAGUE in EUROPE themed area. Come winter, we will also start preparing the next construction phase of that themed area, which will be the most impressive by far. Expected to take a few years to complete, it will give HANSA-PARK a wholly new feel and feature attractions that the Park hasn’t seen before.

At the moment we are planning and preparing the 2023 season which will last from April 6 through October 29.

We are looking forward to welcoming you at the Park!

Die Studie honoriert jene Unternehmen, die in Punkto Produkte und Service, Preis-Leistung, Kundenzufriedenheit, Arbeitgeber-Fairness und Nachhaltigkeit mit ihrer „Fairness“ überzeugen konnten. Hierfür wurden mit Hilfe eines Social Listenings 7,4 Millionen Nennungen zu den etwa 17.000 untersuchten Unternehmen im Zeitraum vom 16. Dezember 2020 bis 15. Dezember 2021 identifiziert, zugeordnet und ausgewertet.

Dabei erzielte der HANSA-PARK 100 von 100 möglichen Punkten und erreichte im Branchenranking der Themen- und Freizeitparks den 1. Platz.

Dieses Ergebnis erfüllt uns mit Stolz und bestärkt uns in unserem Bestreben, weiter an unserer unternehmerischen Gesamtperformance zu arbeiten: Für unseren Park, für unseren Service, für unsere Gäste, für unser Team und für unseren Planeten.

Business Punk ranked about 20,000 businesses: HANSA-PARK is among the 173 top scorers and has been rated Top Company for Digital Talents

Business Punk ranked about 20,000 businesses: HANSA-PARK is among the 173 top scorers and has been rated Top Company for Digital Talents

Business Punk, a business lifestyle magazine published by Gruner + Jahr, and the Institute for Management and Economic Research (IMWF) have developed a representative corporate reputation ranking system that assesses the digital maturity of employers.

Of the roughly 20,000 German businesses assessed only 173 companies scored top, achieving between 90 and 100 points.

One of them is HANSA-PARK, Germany’s only event and family theme park by the sea. This is an outstanding achievement, prompting Business Punk, a business lifestyle magazine, to award HANSA-PARK the title “Top Company for Digital Talents”.

For the survey the IMWF used web crawling to collect about 4.4 million entries by roughly 20,000 German companies. The data gathered on the internet from January 2018 to March 2019 form the basis of the corporate reputation ranking.

The companies were evaluated based on their general digital maturity. Three other employer rating criteria played a key role: hard facts, culture and benefits. Digital maturity made up 50% of the ranking; the other three criteria made up the remaining 50%.

Christoph Andreas Leicht, Managing Shareholder of HANSA-PARK, is very proud of the achievement, “In an age where people who do not have a smartphone are increasingly rare, companies are forced to digitalise their processes. We offer our guests free WiFi services in the Park as well as an interactive digital feedback system. Our employees are always up to date with our digital information board that displays the latest information. Their daily routines, too, are digitalised, for instance their daily safety inspections of the Park’s attractions. We are very happy that our continued commitment in this field has not gone unnoticed.”

Valuable Employer 2018

WirtschaftsWoche awarded HANSA-PARK the title of Valuable Employer 2018

The aim of the Valuable Employer survey was to find out how valuable employers are for their region and how much the community benefits from them.

Just what makes an employer valuable for a region? The best people to judge that are those who live in the area. On behalf of WirtschaftsWoche, a German weekly business news magazine, ServiceValue, a market research institute, in a survey asked the residents of 54 north-German administrative districts and 17 self-governed cities to rate their regional employers. All in all, some 1,500 employers were rated.

What exactly makes a business valuable for the population? Is it its economic success? The number of jobs it creates? Both certainly are important aspects! However, it is no longer all about making profits. When choosing a new employer, values and reputation play an at least equally significant role. Many companies therefore strive to strike a balance when it comes to the common good both within and outside the company. This includes a healthy work-life balance for the employees as much as creating added value and enhancing the benefit for society.

The study left it to the participants to define the term of Valuable Employer but WirtschaftsWoche reported that a company’s social commitment played a pivotal role for those who took part in the survey.

HANSA-PARK was ranked third by the Ostholstein administrative district.

“We take huge pride in the positive rating we have been given by Ostholstein‘s residents and are happy about the fabulous third place we have achieved in the administrative district of Ostholstein, preceded only by AMEOS and Schwartau Werke. Apart from the roughly 800 jobs HANSA-PARK offers for the people in the region, the Park regularly supports people in special circumstances. Today, the Park donates double-digit millions to selected projects, for instance within the framework of the Social Weeks.

European Star Award 2019

2nd place - Europe’s Best New Rides: The HIGHLANDER
and 4th place - Europe’s Best Family Rides: The Midgard Serpent

Kirmes & Park Revue, Europe’s leading amusement park specialist magazine, once again presented the independent European Star Award to Europe’s best amusement parks. The annual prize is awarded to amusement parks to honour entrepreneurial courage and innovative ideas.

This year’s European Star Award ceremony was held at the Parc-Astérix-Hotel, La Cité Suspendue, in Paris on the eve of the IAAPA Expo Europe. Until the end of July, an independent jury comprising experts from the leisure park industry voted on the most noteworthy attractions, roller coasters and theme parks in Europe.

HANSA-PARK received the European Star Award 2019 in the category Europe’s Best New Ride. HANSA-PARK came in second with The HIGHLANDER. The HIGHLANDER is HANSA-PARK’s new attraction for 2019 which, at a total height of 120m, currently is the tallest and biggest gyro drop tower in the world.

The Midgard Serpent, a ride specifically geared towards families with children, won 4th place in Europe’s Best Family Ride category this year.

“Receiving these European Star Awards 2019 proves that throughout
Europe our attractions are known to offer something for the whole family,
be it very young or adult guests,”
said a beaming
Christoph Andreas Leicht, Managing Partner of HANSA-PARK.

Worldofparks Award 2019

For the ninth time in a row: HANSA-PARK receives the coveted people’s choice Worldofparks Award 2019 for being “Europe’s Best Amusement Park for Kids”

10 days and 10 nights - that’s how long Worldofparks readers were given to cast their vote, and in the end some 30,000 users all over Europe took part in the “Worldofparks Voting 2019”.

The Worldofparks Award is one of the most important awards in the European amusement park industry voted on entirely by the public.

For the ninth consecutive time HANSA-PARK has won the Worldofparks Award in the category “Europe’s Best Amusement Park for Kids”.

“We are proud that we have been voted Europe’s best Amusement Park for Kids. In particular it is a recognition of our HANSA-PARK team’s efforts to make our young guests happy. It’s our employees who give the Park a face and a voice. Without them we wouldn’t be able to have such fabulous attractions for children. We thank all voters for their support. The award is our motivation to continue to give our best,” says Christoph Andreas Leicht, managing shareholder of HANSA-PARK.

HANSA-PARK also top in sustainability!

HANSA-PARK also top in sustainability! FAZ awards HANSA-PARK the Excellent Sustainability Certificate

Besides HANSA-PARK, another 828 businesses from 200 sectors were honoured for their commitment to sustainability. HANSA-PARK scored 94.9 out of 100 points, which is second-best in the industry.

The award proves that HANSA-PARK is one of the top performers when it comes to sustainability. In 2019, consumers throughout Europe voted HANSA-PARK Best Amusement Park for Kids in Europe for the ninth consecutive time, which earned the Park the World of Parks Award. Voted Germany’s third-best theme park, HANSA-PARK on top won the Parkscout Plus Award - one of the most coveted leisure industry awards in Germany voted on entirely by the public.

In terms of Europe-wide dimension, HANSA-PARK is by far the most important and biggest private tourism and leisure enterprise in the “real” north, and we consider it our duty to be a role model in sustainability. Many believe that sustainability, or sustainable development, refers to ecological behaviour only. In fact, it is also a holistic social, economic and ecological concept. Green roofs, photovoltaic plants, electro-mobility and heat recovery systems certainly play a huge part, but infrastructure, personnel management and where our goods come from are just as important aspects,” says Christoph Andreas Leicht, Managing Partner of HANSA-PARK.

Since the Park’s opening, sustainability and the environment have played a major role in Hansa-Park’s management. As recent as 2018, HANSA-PARK set up 10 charging stations for electric vehicles. Like the entire Park the stations are, of course, wholly financed by HANSA-PARK without any public grants.

In 2019 season, the Park stopped using cutlery and straws made from plastic and replaced them with products made from 100% renewable resources.

From the 2020 season, the Park will use FSC-certified (recyclable) paper for food trays, tickets and brochures/leaflets.

Customers’ Favourite 2016

According to a study conducted by Focus Money HANSA-PARK is “Customers’ Favourite 2016”

The “customers’ favourites” study looked at social media contributions on 1,000 brands from 82 industry sectors and product categories respectively, and evaluated 12 million customer statements with regard to price, service, quality and reputation. 

The “customers’ favourites” study was conducted by Faktenkontor on behalf of Focus Money, a German weekly financial magazine.

The brand “HANSA-PARK” has been awarded the bronze prize in the category Amusement Parks, which is an excellent result as only 3 awards were presented in this category (1x bronze, 1x silver, 1x gold). 

“We are very happy about the prize. It shows that not “only” do our attractions, such as the   hypercoaster KÄRNAN with its reverse free fall that is unrivalled in the world, feature state-of-the-art technology, but the Park is also at the top of the field when it comes to digital and web technology,” says a delighted Andreas Leicht, Managing Director of HANSA-PARK.
