Netherlands, also informally known as Holland, is a prominent Western European country that shares its borders with the Belgium, Germany, and the North Sea. The country shares its maritime borders with Germany, the United Kingdom, and Belgium. While Hague is the center of country’s government and parliament, Amsterdam is its capital. Other notable cities include Utrecht and Rotterdam. Today, leaving aside the United States, the Netherlands is the largest exporter of agricultural and food products in the world.
The Netherlands is a country that has a history of being socially tolerant and is widely believed to be liberal with it having legalized euthanasia, prostitution, and abortion. Today, the country is a founding member of various world bodies, including Eurozone, the EU, WTO, OECD, NATO, and G-10. It is also a part of the trilateral Benelux Union and the Schengen Area. The Netherlands has been playing an active role in the region’s economy as it is a developed country on its own. Its economy has been banking on various sectors, like fishing, shipping, banking, trade, and agriculture for centuries.
A 100% subsidiary of SAP AG, SAP Netherlands employs more than 300 people and has annual revenue close to $100 million. Eying a lot of growth in the region, SAP Netherlands has been targeting a number of SMEs (small and medium-sized companies). In this regard, SAP has even tied –up with local companies and businesses. Through these tie-ups, smaller companies and businesses have been able to access cutting-edge ERP solutions that they normally could not have afforded.
Dutch companies have been increasingly using SAP solutions and services for their growth in the recent years. The fact that nearly 70 percent of these companies that employ 50 or more people use SAP for their day-to-day operations is a clear indication that SAP has a major say in the country’s future. SAP is believed to have even bigger say in companies that are of a much larger size, especially that have made the cut in the list of Fortune 500 companies. Nearly 50 percent of these companies use SAP applications and are reaping rewards.
In Netherlands, SAP also enjoys a healthy lead over its competitors as a majority of companies operating in sectors like education, health care, the government, and the public sector rely on it to deliver results.
Some of the prominent Dutch companies that have been relying on SAP services and solutions for their growth include Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Gemalto NV, Philips Lighting NV, ING Groep NV, Delta Lloyd NV, Akzo Nobel NV, Randstad Holding NV, VimpelCom Ltd., Wolters Kluwer NV, and others.
