Why invest in Haarlemmermeer?

Never a dull moment in Haarlemmermeer!

Dynamism and business activity are the hallmarks of Haarlemmermeer. At the same time, its rural character and agricultural setting offer space and tranquility.

To live in Haarlemmermeer is to reside in an authentic and unique polder landscape. With well-developed infrastructure and facilities such as shopping centres, theatres, cinemas, a hospital, historic and unique attractions such as the Cruquius pumping station, plus good quality education. All this at a stone’s throw from cities like Amsterdam, Haarlem, Leiden and The Hague.

Haarlemmermeer is a sports-minded municipality which is keen to promote a healthy lifestyle through at least 180 sport clubs. The King Willem-Alexander sports complex is a wonderful new sports facility that also includes top-level facilities for rhythmic gymnastics and synchronised swimming. The new baseball stadium where baseball events, such as the European Championship, are played at the highest professional level, is unique in Europe

In the many local leisure areas, residents can play, picnic, enjoy walking, running, cycling, skating and canoeing. The coast and the dunes are also within easy access. Mysteryland, the internationally renowned dance event, and Mud Masters are large-scale attractions.
Particularly worthy of note is PARK21 which is now being established between Hoofddorp and Nieuw-Vennep. Covering around 1,000 hectares, PARK21 will form the green recreational centre of the polder.

In full swing

Large and small housing schemes are being developed in the various communities, with a diversity of housing types. High quality business parks aimed at attracting local, regional and international companies were developed at strategic locations, with designs that offer a green, healthy and inspiring working environment.

In all of these developments, the main focus is on the future - with sustainability being the main priority. Haarlemmermeer is doing its bit by promoting the transition from a throw-away to a reuse economy. With a circular economy as the foundation, Haarlemmermeer is striving to achieve the ideal in terms of quality of life, work, living and learning, and to strengthen its competitive position.

Realizing the goal of a circular economy requires strong co-operation between the corporate sector, experts and the government. Haarlemmermeer warmly welcomes pioneering companies. This dynamic municipality offers space for innovation and enterprise. It is ideally suited to be the laboratory where innovative projects and pilots find their home in generating expertise and experience.
