The port of Rotterdam is the gateway to the European market of more than 500 million consumers, thanks to its numerous deep sea links and good multimodal connections within Europe. Rotterdam is also an important transhipment port for international cargo flows, thanks to the multiple intercontinental cargo movements that converge there.
