Investment Decision
Groningen Seaports is investing €43.7 million in the Oosterhorn-Zuid industrial site in Delfzijl. The decision was made by the general management on 18 March 2022. This area is part of the existing land owned by Groningen Seaports and is not an extension.
Need for Development
The development is necessary due to the increasing scarcity of space in the port, coupled with growing industrial market demand. This trend is evident from the sharp rise in the number of companies looking to establish themselves in the management area of Groningen Seaports.
Sustainable Growth
The circular and biobased economy in Delfzijl is rapidly advancing, with a focus on sustainable growth. The marketing strategy aimed at this development has attracted many companies to the area.
Regional Impact
By developing Oosterhorn-Zuid, Groningen Seaports aims to sustainably develop and exploit industrial sites while contributing to regional employment. Many companies have already reserved land or are in the final stages of the process.
