For whom?

• With various modalities in a single location (air, road, high-speed railway and public transport) and a high-quality multifunctional environment, A4 Zone West is designed to facilitate every activity in the logistics chain: from pure logistics to trading activities.

• From storage and distribution through high-quality manufacturing, VAL, knowledge development and marketing & sales.

• Businesses from sectors such as high tech, fashion, life sciences and food & flowers will also feel right at home here.

Logistics ZoneLarge-scale logistics activities, value added logistics and urban logistics will all have a place in the new ‘Logistics Zone’. The location will also be home to the planned HST Cargo Terminal and offer a direct connection with the airport platforms via the Dedicated Cargo Lane.

Green ValleyCultural and creative: two words that reflect this section of the A4 Zone West. The area offers an appealing mix between local businesses, small-scale logistics and leisure. With plenty of natural landscape, the Valley was designed to highlight the area’s cultural and historical features.

Adding value: connecting trade, knowledge & innovation Two key concepts will be pivotal in allowing businesses to add value to the logistics chain:• Trade Boulevard: Room for storage and distribution combined with B2B showrooms and

shared facilities.• Trade & Logistics Campus: Small-scale development with room for the exchange of

knowledge, R&D, marketing & Sales and ICT. A diverse range of services and facilities: hotel, conferencing centres, food service outlets, childcare facilities and sports facilities.

Map of the inititial phase

Our objective• A4 Zone West embodies the principles of logistical innovation and increasing value in

every link of the logistics chain. • Our focus is on onward chain integration: connecting logistical core activities with value

adding activities. • We also facilitate synchromodal transport, thus ensuring the optimal flow of goods from

one modality to the next.• A4 Zone West is developed as an offshoot of Amsterdam Connecting Trade (ACT), an

innovative programme initiated by the Dutch logistics sector (designated as a priority sector by the Dutch government). The principle behind A4 Zone West is based on the same rationale: a continuous effort to create logistical innovation. Our philosophy is based on the principle of sustainability, while our unique strength lies in our ability to offer multimodality.
