The Port of Amsterdam. Make it yours.

The Amsterdam port area is one of the world’s key international logistics hubs. It ranks among Europe’s five biggest ports handling over 86 million metric tons of cargo annually.
 
Amsterdam has the largest seaport-airport-city combination in Europe (all within 20 min. reach of each other). The strategic and central location in Europe makes the port easy to reach and ensures excellent connections to all the major European markets.

With four dedicated, fast and efficient  break bulk terminals and two container terminals, of which one is Europe’s most innovative, the Amsterdam port area offers an ideal environment for your business.

 “We are delighted to be hosting Intermodal again in 2010. Our accessibility and facilities make Amsterdam the ideal venue for an international event like Intermodal – and we are looking forward to giving exhibitors and visitors a show to remember.”
Jesse Gosse, Marketing and Communications Manager, Port of Amsterdam

The European Intermodal Association is the first European association open to all transport modes: rail, road, waterborne, air. Its aim is to improve the co-operation of the different modes of transport as the logistics' chain still has lots of shortcomings in infrastructural, technical, organisational and legal respect.

Therefore, this neutral organisation with more than 90 members is suitably qualified to discuss controversial subjects and to propose well balanced sustainable solutions in line with and to improve the EU transport policy. In this sense EIA offers its services to the EU Institutions in order to help shaping the appropriate measures.

The Shortsea Promotion Centre Holland has been set up to encourage a more active use of short sea shipping as a viable alternative to road transport in Europe.

The bureau’s aims are:

• to increase the awareness of short sea shipping amongst shippers, forwarders, logistic providers and transport companies;
• to provide shippers with information on the possibilities of short sea transport within Europe, especially with regard to intermodal door-to-door transport;
• to be a source of objective freight and transport information for trade, industry and the government;
• to analyse problems which might affect short sea, in order to ensure it competes on a equal footing with other modes of transport;
• to support trade organisations in their shortsea lobby;
   

The Information Bureau provides shippers and forwarders with specific information on every aspect of shortsea transport, such as type of service, sailings and door-to-door transit times.
