GENERAL
The representative property is located in the “De Hoef” business park, on the north-eastern side of Amersfoort, the centre of the Netherlands and therefore an attractive home base, in line with NS station Amersfoort Schothorst. Amersfoort is located in the most competitive region of Europe. A city with highly educated, young residents and 15,000 businesses, ranging from sole traders to (inter)national head offices.

It will become a lively place where there is room for a mix of functions.
Several renowned companies have established themselves at “De Hoef”, including Vereniging Eigen Huis, Heilijgers, Sogeti Nederland, Johnson & Johnson Consumer and Heijmans.
