Mission, vision and strategy
Mission
Creating pioneering growth, that is our mission. That is why we continually strive for good environmental quality and areal quality. Also, we are constantly focused on our surroundings and the societal aspects, inside and outside the company.
We zorgen ervoor dat onze inspanningen en doelstellingen in lijn zijn met het Nederlandse Energieakkoord voor duurzame groei (2013) en het Grondstoffenakkoord. En met internationale MVO-richtlijnen zoals de OESO-richtlijnen en de Sustainable Development Goals We ensure that our efforts and targets are in line with the Dutch Energy Agreement for sustainable growth (2013), the Commodities Agreement and international CSR guidelines. Such as the OECD guidelines and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This enables us to demonstrate our value creation in a wider context.
Vision 2030
By 2030, the Amsterdam port region will be more than a hub. It will be a dynamic metropolitan port that combines the strengths of Amsterdam's three main assets:
- The world-class logistics hub
- The high-quality regional industry
- The diverse urban services industry
By optimally connecting these three assets, we create cross-pollination, synergy and innovation. This ensures that the Amsterdam port region remains one of Europe's leading ports and a driver of the economy. One that is fast, smart and clean.
Strategy
Based on the vision, we have defined our strategy 2021-2025: Taking the lead. By 2025, we want to be a leading European seaport, leading the way in the transition to a sustainable society.
