Running a business
An excellent business climate
The excellent business climate, the good infrastructure without traffic jams and the low price of land make Zeeuws-Vlaanderen an interesting choice for companies to settle.
This is partly the result of the policies of the municipalities and the province of Zeeland. An active, inviting policy of attracting new companies and optimising conditions for established businesses is being pursued. A strong regional economy is in the interest of the entire region. You can choose to start a business in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen, expand your existing company here or take over a successful company in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen. It is also good to know that there is close cooperation with the Flemish business community.
Starting a business
There are various opportunities for entrepreneurs in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen: whether it is a new distribution centre, a large outlet store, a high-tech internet company or a guesthouse or practice at home. What might be difficult to achieve elsewhere in the Netherlands is possible for large and small businesses here.
Entrepreneurs (from single member company and SMEs to multinationals) in the city of Hulst, Sluis and Terneuzen can go to the enterprise counter, a contact point for entrepreneurs; face-to-face contact and tailor-made solutions are key.
NV Economische Impuls Zeeland plays an important role in attracting new businesses to the province. For port-related matters, you can contact Zeeland Seaports, the manager of the ports of the province of Zeeland, including those in Terneuzen.
Have a look at the list of associations of undertakings and the website of Port & Industry Zeeland (PORTIZ).
