More and more agricultural goods from Flevoland are finding their way to international markets via <\/strong>Flevokust Port<\/strong><\/a> in Lelystad. Where previously mainly trucks were used, a growing number of companies now consciously opt for transport by water. The result: less traffic pressure, lower emissions and a more efficient logistics chain.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Through the transshipment terminal in Lelystad, thousands of containers of onions are now shipped annually toward the seaports of Rotterdam and Antwerp. According to TMA Multimodal, active at Flevokust Haven, the volume actually doubled last year. The onions come from Waterman Unions Group of Emmeloord, which now routes a significant portion of its exports through Lelystad. <\/p>\n

Fewer trucks, lower emissions
<\/strong>The shift from road to water has a clear impact. The industry association of onion processors and trading houses indicates that transport by inland waterway leads to a reduction of approximately 65 percent in CO\u2082 emissions compared to traditional road transport. It also helps reduce congestion and makes companies less dependent on future measures such as road pricing. <\/p>\n

Strategic logistics hub
<\/strong>The increasing use of transport by water shows what Lelystad stands for: a strategic logistics hub with space, accessibility and sustainable solutions. Flevokust Haven offers companies direct access to seaports, scalable transhipment capacity and a business climate where innovation is not a promise but a reality. <\/p>\n
