NL: Labour productivity far above European average
The Netherlands belong to the most competitive countries in the world. An important reason for the competitiveness of the Netherlands is the way in which high-quality goods and services are supplied.
The Netherlands particularly score well in export sectors. Industry, transport & logistics, agriculture and food all have a higher productivity than average compared to the neighbouring countries.
