Location
Location description¹:
The Ammerland park landscape forms the western portal to the metropolitan region Bremen-Oldenburg in the northwest. Thanks to its direct proximity to the university city of Oldenburg and the favourable position en route to the seaports and holiday centres on the East Frisian and Lower Saxon coast, the District of Ammerland business location has a particular attractiveness.
Two motorways (A 28, A 29), two federal trunk roads (B 211, B 401), the Coastal Canal as federal inland waterway and two railway routes pass through the administrative district and provide for an optimum level of supra-regional transport links and accessibility.
The park landscape of Ammerland offers its residents and visitors a high quality of life with its diverse natural charms and attractions, its broad range of cultural opportunities and events, and its practically unlimited range of leisure facilities and recreational opportunities.
The economic structure of the Ammerland region is dominated by smaller and medium-sized enterprises. The branch mix is exceptionally broad in scope and extends from agriculture and horticulture over the crafts, skilled trades, numerous trading and service companies, and the tourism industry to the strongly represented construction industry, food industry, mechanical and plant engineering, and companies specialising in the industrial production of commodities, including goods in the high-tech domain.
Companies and businesses from all branches of industry settle in the Ammerland, feel at home here, and are able to grow and develop further according to their wishes. A considerable contribution to this atmosphere and success is provided by the district and local government economic promotion agencies through a diversified information policy, the active counselling and ongoing support of resident companies in all dealings with government authorities, the mediation of competent contact partners, for instance in technology-oriented issues, and the research and assistance provided in taking advantage of publicly funded business promotion programmes.
