Herlev's business community has something special to offer
Herlev differs from many other business areas in that it is home to some of the region's largest employers in the health and knowledge sectors. Herlev Hospital plays a central role and serves as a hub for both health-related functions and a number of smaller life science and service companies in the area.
At the same time, Herlev is home to a wide range of companies within administration, technical professions, services, and light manufacturing. This creates a robust and varied business environment with activity throughout the day and interaction between different industries and types of companies, from small specialists to larger organizations.
A business-friendly municipality with a focus on dialogue
Herlev Municipality works actively to attract and retain businesses across all sectors. Through dialogue, business services, and ongoing consultation, both established businesses and new players in the municipality are supported.
The close contact between the municipality and the business community means that urban development, business, and everyday life are increasingly being considered together. For companies, this creates clarity, shorter decision-making processes, and more flexible cooperation in practice.
Herlev provides efficient access for employees, customers, and partners
Herlev is strategically located in the western part of the capital region, a short distance from Copenhagen and with easy access to the rest of the region. Herlev Ringvej serves as a central traffic artery, connecting the area to the main road network and motorway connections (E47, Ring3, and Ring4).
Public transport is a significant strength. Herlev Station provides direct access to the S-train network, making commuting easy for employees from large parts of the region. In addition, the Greater Copenhagen Light Rail is a further strength for public transport and makes Herlev even more accessible as a place of work, including for well-educated employees based in the rest of the capital region.
For companies, this means better recruitment opportunities and fewer logistical obstacles in their day-to-day operations.
