Rotterdam is the busiest container port in Europe.8 In addition to several large
terminal operators, the port encompasses three logistics parks (‘‘distriparks’’):
Eemhaven, Maasvlkte, and Botlek. While the logistics service providers in Botlek
specialize in chemicals, Eemhaven and Maasvlkte9 are located next to large
container terminals (among others, the ECT Home terminal at Eemhaven and the
ECT Delta terminal at Maasvlakte). The land of Eemhaven is owned by the
Albrandswaard municipality, while the land owner of Maasvlkte is the Port of
Rotterdam, which manages all three distriparks. These distriparks are connected to
the European hinterland by highways, rail, inland waterways and short sea shipping,
10 allowing for efficient distribution of shipments from Rotterdam to Europe.
A dedicated freight rail line is used to move containers directly from the Rotterdam
port to Duisburg, which is a rail hub in Germany close to the Dutch border.
