About Port of Amsterdam
We are Port of Amsterdam, and we manage and develop one of the largest sea ports in Europe.
Mission and vision
Our mission is to create sustainable connections for a society in transition. We aim for the port to remain a relevant link in an international logistics system, both now and in the future — rooted in the North Sea Canal area and an essential part of a leading European capital. A port that the people of Amsterdam can be proud of.
This ambition is reflected in our vision for 2040: Green Port Amsterdam. By 2040, Amsterdam will be the port of destination for clean shipping, circular industry, and renewable energy.
Strategy
With our strategy 'On course toward a future-proof port complex', we are taking the first steps toward Green Port Amsterdam. Over the next four years, we will focus on strengthening the competitive position of the Port of Amsterdam in transition and preparing our business climate for the European climate goals for 2030.
In this video, Eduard de Visser, Director of Strategy & Innovation, explains what our plans are for the coming years.
Key duties
Port of Amsterdam has three core duties:
- Developing the port region into a magnet for businesses and continuous improvement of the services we provide to customers.
- Construction, maintenance and upgrading of the physical infrastructure and the management of the Amsterdam port area.
- Efficient, safe and environmentally friendly handling of maritime traffic in the North Sea Canal Area, including through regulations and enforcement. Central Nautical Management (Centraal Nautisch Beheer/CNB) has outsourced these operations to Port of Amsterdam’s Harbour Master’s Division.
