I also want to thank Per Skoglund for his advice and interesting thoughts. Additionally, I want to express my appreciation and gratefulness to all the respondents from the container terminal and dry port industries. Special thanks to the interviewees and respondents of Gothenburg and Jönköping area for their time and valuable contribution to this study. May 2012, Jönköping Robert Castrillón D. ii INTENTIONALLY BLANK iii Master Thesis in Business Administration - ILSCM Programme Title: Relationships between Maritime Container Terminals and Dry Ports and their impact on Inter-port competition Author: Robert Castrillón Dussán Tutor: Assistant Professor Leif-Magnus Jensen Date: 2012-05-14 Subject terms: Container terminals, dry ports, relationship assessment, customer /supplier interaction, inter-port competition, inland integration of port services _________________________________________________________________________ Abstract Globalization of the world’s economy, containerization, intermodalism and specialization have reshaped transport systems and the industries that are considered crucial for the international distribution of goods such as the port industry. Simultaneously, economies of location, economies of scope, economies of scale, optimization of production factors, and clustering of industries have triggered port regionalization and inland integration of port services especially those provided by container terminals. In this integration dry ports have emerged as a vital intermodal platform for the effective and efficient distribution of containerized cargo. -

How People Green the Port: Sustainability in Canadian Ports
How People Green the Port: Sustainability in Canadian Ports by Kristianne R. Hendricks B.A., University of the Fraser Valley, 2014 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Geography Faculty of Environment Kristianne Rebecca Hendricks 2017 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Spring 2017 Approval Name: Kristianne Rebecca Hendricks Degree: Master of Arts Title: How People Green the Ports: Sustainability in Canadian Ports Examining Committee: Chair: Meg Holden Associate Professor Peter Hall Senior Supervisor Professor Roger Hayter Supervisor Professor Adolf Ng External Examiner Professor Asper School of Business University of Manitoba Date Defended/Approved: April 4, 2017 ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract Canadian Port Authorities (CPAs) annually move $162 billion in international trade and in recent years have been faced with significant pressures to become environmentally sustainable. In response, CPAs have introduced numerous greening strategies with important implications for the dock labour force. This thesis focuses on the greening strategies undertaken by CPAs and their interplay with dockworkers; it identifies these greening strategies and assesses their implications for dockworkers. The thesis adopts a two-part methodology. First, greening measures undertaken by CPAs are categorized and compared. Second, a case study of Vancouver’s port is undertaken through interviews with a broad set of port actors in order to examine the links between labour and sustainability in the port. It is concluded that greening strategies have been an important, albeit uneven trend across CPAs and that dockworkers play an influential role in the greening of the port. Keywords: Canadian Ports; Environmental Sustainability; Labour; Vancouver iv Dedication To the three people who inspire me to keep learning every day: Shaleena, Adalia, and Zoren. -
About the Port of Vancouver Usa
ABOUT THE PORT OF VANCOUVER USA The Port of Vancouver USA, the second-largest port on the Columbia River and an invaluable partner to a broad range of shippers and manufacturers, is a thriving West Coast seaport offering the most direct cargo shipping route from the Pacific Rim to North America through its Advantaged Supply Chain. Unique to the Port of Vancouver USA is its capacity for growth – both on the marine and industrial sides. The port has invested millions of dollars to develop the infrastructure and site requirements needed for companies to transport their cargoes and conduct their businesses in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. The port has worked diligently to provide outstanding customer service and to ensure that what’s important to shippers and tenants – whether specialized equipment, skilled labor, warehousing, sustainability programs, or collaboration on site selection, funding or logistics – is available to meet their needs now and in the future should they wish to expand. QUICK FACTS & HIGHLIGHTS The port, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2012, is the third largest port in the state of Washington. It has five marine terminals that provide 13 deepwater shipping berths. The port handled 4.6 million metric tons of cargo in 2012, more than 57 percent in grain exports. However, an increase in the number of grain elevators on the Columbia Snake River System and an increase in agricultural exports from countries such as Australia resulted in less wheat moving across Port of Vancouver docks in 2012. And because wheat is the port’s number one export by volume, the decrease in wheat exports is directly reflected in the 18.5 percent decrease in the port’s overall tonnage from 2011. -
