Rotterdam, home to Europe’s largest port, is naturally instrumental to the continual success of the Netherlands’ logistics and transportation industry. Rotterdam has every type of connection - air, water, rail and road - at its disposal, which makes it a prime redistribution point for the rest of Europe. The Port of Rotterdam processes approximately 7.4 million containers annually, making it one of the busiest ports in the world. The port’s status extends far beyond its sheer volume; it is also known as one of the most sustainable ports globally. Rotterdam's dedication to digital transformation in the logistics and transportation industry has allowed the city to maintain its competitive edge. The integration of new technology enables faster, smarter logistics operations, which has the added benefit of appealing to future investors and companies seeking efficiency in their supply chains. The port’s digitization efforts are transforming the transportation landscape, helping businesses become more competitive. Innovative tech logistics firms, traditional logistics companies with a focus on sustainability, and key industries such as Agri & Food and Chemicals have all set up operations in the region. This interconnected network is contributing to the rapid growth of Rotterdam's business ecosystem. The city is a hotbed for tech start-ups and scale-ups, as well as traditional logistics companies that are focusing on digitalization and sustainable initiatives. As the global logistics industry shifts towards greener practices, Rotterdam is leading the way. The city’s commitment to sustainability is evident in the Port of Rotterdam’s ambitious goal to become even more environmentally friendly, while also facilitating low-emission freight options, including electric and alternative fuel vehicles. One striking feature of Rotterdam’s logistics landscape is its efficient road transport system. Around 40% of truck journeys from the port stay within the Rotterdam region. Trucks remain a key mode of transport for short distances.
