Why The Netherlands for European warehousing, fulfilment and logistics

As global markets continue to evolve, the Netherlands reaffirms its position as one of the most attractive destinations for international companies. The newly published PwC “Doing Business in the Netherlands 2025” guide confirms what forward-looking businesses already know: the Netherlands is the ideal launchpad for reaching European consumers, especially when supported by the right warehousing, 3PL, and fulfillment partners.

A proven succesful entrance to Europe for international trade and distribution

Located at the heart of the EU, the Netherlands offers exceptional logistics infrastructure for European distribution. With 170 million consumers within 500 kilometers and 250 million within 1,000 kilometers, it's no surprise that companies from North America, Asia, and the Middle East choose the Netherlands to store, sell, and ship their products throughout Europe.

The Port of Rotterdam, the largest in Europe, and Amsterdam Schiphol Airport ensure seamless import, export, and cross-border e-commerce logistics. Combined with high-speed rail, road, and inland shipping routes, this enables fast, reliable fulfillment across the EU.

Very business-friendly climate for global companies

The Netherlands is known for:

• A competitive corporate tax structure (19% up to €200k, 25.8% above)
• A wide tax treaty network and advance tax rulings
• Highly skilled, multilingual workforce
• Leading digital infrastructure and innovation ecosystem

The Dutch government actively supports foreign investment, supply chain innovation, and sustainable logistics solutions. This makes the country a natural choice for setting up European distribution centers, e-fulfillment hubs, and regional headquarters.
