Project Logistics

According to the World Shipping Council, the majority of global cargo is delivered in containers or – in logistics terminology – TEUs. About 90% of world trade is carried out by sea. After the cargo has arrived in port, onward delivery is made to its final destination, which is rarely in the port itself. In such cases, intermodal shipments are made from the shipper's door to the recipient's door. Recently, the growing popularity of intermodality has been an increasingly useful development tool for European transport policy.
