Bergen op Zoom business city

Entrepreneurship in Bergen op Zoom = instant success!

"Where Brabant and Zeeland meet" is the exact location of Bergen op Zoom. A historic city with a pleasant atmosphere and within short distance of major international ports.

It only takes 40 minutes to reach the Dutch coast. Rotterdam, Antwerp (Belgium) and Brussels (Belgium) can be reached within a 45, 25 and 50 minutes drive. It is no coincidence that big multinationals as well as hundreds of smaller organisations are located in Bergen op Zoom.

Bergen op Zoom is a very pleasant place to live and work. The historical city centre accommodates a variety of shops: from well-known chain stores to small shops offering special items or with a unique interior. Bergen op Zoom has been rightly awarded the ‘Beste Binnenstad van Nederland’ prize in 2007!

In close cooperation with entrepreneurs the municipality of Bergen op Zoom invests in keeping the inner city and the industrial sites vital. Training employees, innovation, safety and accessibility are focus of attention as well. All this is coordinated by the municipal Trade Desk. Businesses, organisations and institutions can call upon this central point. The Trade Desk helps (starting) entrepreneurs saving time in obtaining the right information.
