Zeehaven IJmuiden N.V.

The port has a powerful market position thanks to its favourable geographical location and business clusters. The location directly by the sea, unimpeded access to the entrance of the North Sea Canal Area and the presence of three business clusters (Food, Energy and Leisure) are major strengths of the port. Many of the businesses enjoy an excellent market position, offering good prospects for the further expansion and deepening of the sectors active in the port, namely:
  • fresh fish,
  • pelagic fisheries,
  • cold and frozen storage sector,
  • offshore activities and maintenance and construction of offshore wind farms,
  • RoRo ferry services,
  • cruise services
