General
Venlo is conveniently located, at the junction between the mainports Schiphol, Rotterdam and Antwerp on the one hand and the German and Central European hinterland on the other. Partly because of this, Venlo has become the third logistics hub in the Netherlands, after the port of Rotterdam and Schiphol Airport. Specialized logistics service providers direct European, and even global flows of goods from Venlo. Within Europe, the focus is on Germany and Central European countries. Venlo’s status as a strategically located logistics hub is obviously also positive for Greenport Venlo. Venlo is easily accessible from all directions. A trimodal system of road, rail and water connections provide perfect accessibility and connectivity.
Greenport Venlo
Greenport Venlo is the second horticultural area in the Netherlands. Together with the neighboring German region of Niederrhein, Greenport Venlo is even the largest in Europe. All links in the agri-food chain are present: from primary sector – food, feed and flowers – to trade and processing. Among other things, Greenport Venlo focuses on area development, innovation of products, processes and markets. To this end, Greenport Venlo brings together researchers, educational institutions, entrepreneurs, governments and the environment. This should double the economic value in the fresh produce sector from 1 to 2 billion euros over the next decade. The heart of Greenport Venlo is the region around Venlo. Greenport Venlo is one of six Greenports in the Netherlands. Greenport Venlo includes a unique collaboration between entrepreneurs, government, researchers, education and the residents in the area in the field of agribusiness. Central to the collaboration are the promotion of innovations, the creation of an attractive residential and living environment and integrated area development. The goal is to give a boost to the economy of northern Limburg et al.
