Whilst the maritime container business has been studied in depth,
the impact on shippers and how shippers deal with the given
challenges has not been fully examined. Container Logistics bridges
this gap and looks at the maritime business from a customer's
perspective. The book examines the challenges, solutions and the
latest developments in the container industry as well as the
interaction between the different actors involved, such as freight
forwarders, supply chain managers and shippers. Current hot topics
from the supply chain and the maritime business perspective are
included. From the supply chain perspective, Container Logistics
covers areas such as the purchase of transportation services from
ocean carriers and transport management, to effective and efficient
logistics execution. From the maritime business perspective, the
book covers topics such as intermodal freight optimisation and
hinterland transportation, and terminal and port optimisation. With
the inclusion of clear examples of best practice and bona fide case
studies, as well as invaluable contributions from an international
team of experts, Container Logistics is an essential guide for
supply chain managers and shippers, as well as academics and
industry professionals working in the maritime business. Online
supporting resources include images from the book and chapter
summaries.
