Top central location
Antwerp’s central inland location right in the heart of Europe makes it a highly convenient place for starting-up or expanding your European business actions.



Amsterdam, German Ruhrgebiet, London & Paris close at hand
After all, Antwerp is in the very centre of the most densely populated region of Europe. And it is also an area where the inhabitants’ purchasing power is amongst the highest on the continent. The international port of Antwerp and the excellent multimodal infrastructure entail that an exceptionally large part of the European market is quickly and easily accessible. From Antwerp it is a mere two hours to Amsterdam, to London, to Paris or to major industrial centres like Rotterdam in the Netherlands and the Ruhr Area in Germany. And Brussels – capital of Belgium and Europe – is a mere 20 kilometres from the Antwerp region.
