About Ahoi Marie
Ahoi Marie is a sole proprietorship based in Hamburg, run by Hauke Neumann, which manufactures maritime porcelain and ceramic mugs and sells them through its own online shop. Production involves ceramic screen printing of design motifs onto premium porcelain from Kahla (Thuringia) as well as Portuguese premium ceramic; the mugs are fired by hand in the company's own workshops in Hamburg at 800 °C. The mugs are microwave-safe, dishwasher-safe and resistant to dishwater. In addition to production, Ahoi Marie handles product design itself, collaborates with external designers and illustrators, and offers its products as maritime gift items for kitchen and home. The business address is in Hamburg-Winterhude (Holsteinischer Kamp 37); the production workshops are located in Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg and Bahrenfeld respectively; since 2012 production has taken place in a former metal smeltery in Wilhelmsburg. In 2026 the long-standing collaboration ends with the cessation of operations by Kahla Porzellan; there was a final pre-sale of the Kahla mugs.
