Montreal, Toronto and a growing momentum for the Netherlands in Canada

29 Jun Montreal, Toronto and a growing momentum for the Netherlands in Canada

Earlier in June, Justin Groen, Senior Manager Business Development at the Holland International Distribution Council (HIDC), travelled to Canada for a fully packed week in Montreal and Toronto, representing the Dutch logistics sector and meeting with a wide range of Canadian companies, government bodies and trade organisations looking at expansion into Europe.

The key takeaways from the trip can be summarized as:

• International market diversification is accelerating
• Governmental support to businesses is real and growing
• Quebec may look to France first — but the Dutch story sounds appealing
• HIDC partners are already strong advocates of the Netherlands  as the starting point for Europe.

The strong ties between Canada and the Netherlands are a real asset, and they continue to create opportunities for Canadian companies considering Europe as their next market.
