The port of Rotterdam creates significant economic and social value in the Rotterdam-Rijnmond region, the Netherlands and Europe through employment and security of supply of energy, food and other materials needed in society. Thanks to the favourable location, excellent infrastructure and hinterland connections, the port serves as an important hub for industry and global trade, and also as a key partner in developing circular logistics and production chains. We collaborate with various partners on the development of new, circular value chains.
The Port of Rotterdam Authority’s core tasks include the sustainable development, management and operation of the port and industrial complex as well as ensuring the effective, safe and efficient handling of shipping within the port and its offshore approaches.
