The Netherlands
Over the last decades the Netherlands has been able to attract a large number of international companies setting up warehousing and distribution activities in the Netherlands. Besides the more obvious reasons like geographic location close to the main European markets, availability of two main ports (Port of Rotterdam and Schiphol Amsterdam Airport), excellent logistics infrastructure and connectivity to the rest of Europe by road, rail and inland waterways there is one important factor that also played a significant role that might be a bit less known. This is the fact that the Dutch customs authorities are considered to be the most efficient and pro-business in the world. This makes it possible for companies to set up a tax
efficient supply chain. Specifically the legislation regarding VAT deferment and fiscal representation are considered to be highly attractive in the Netherlands.

Logistics
The transportation of goods around the globe increases in volume and distance every single day. Holland plays a key role in the global market because of its well-structured logistics.
The centre for world trade
Logistics concerns the knowledge and expertise that is necessary for the efficient planning, execution, and flow of goods- and information-streams. For many centuries, the Netherlands has been a centre for world trade. With two significant European cargo mainports, Schiphol airport and Port of Rotterdam, less that one hour distant from each other, the Netherlands is a key logistics hub for the through-transportation of goods to the European hinterland, making it an attractive location for foreign companies.
Global trade is expanding and the transportation of goods round the world continues to increase and there is therefore a need for logistics to be as sustainable and efficient as possible. Many new measures have been implemented to reduce the CO2 emissions produced by the sector, such as hybrid delivery vehicles for urban areas and ships using quayside electricity whilst in port.
