Strictly Private & Confidential 12 Impact of Increasing International Trade • In the 1980s when imports were on average 80% (EIU) lower than in 2011, national distribution centres (‘NDCs’) were set up centrally in the Midlands. Stocks were collected by returning store delivery vehicles enabling efficient 2-way transport • NDCs were typically supported by regional distribution centres (RDCs) • When containerised goods are shipped to centrally located NDCs in the ‘Golden Triangle’ the result is that the return leg to the port is often empty The 1980’s The Present • Pre-dominantly UK manufactured goods • Migration of manufacturing to low cost economies • Efficient 2-way flows delivering, collecting and trunking (‘LCEs’) on same vehicles • IT developments enabled central inventory procurement, transportation and replenishment Shifting Trade Patterns Drive Changes in Logistics Models Trade patterns have changed. The UK is now a net importer of goods from the Americas and Far East. These goods are increasingly containerised • Our analysis supported by external advisers demonstrates that the annual cost of managing an 80,000m 2 NDC in Mersey is 8% (£4m) cheaper per annum than a ‘Golden Triangle’ located NDC • Distribution models in the UK are driven by the desire to minimise logistics costs • Over time these economics will drive suppliers and distributers to migrate to this new logistics model The Future • Central UK port centric NDCs remove the inefficiencies of an unloaded journey Strictly Private & Confidential 14 Shipping through Liverpool offers significant savings on inland road or rail miles Region Mileage from Mileage from Mileage from Liverpool Felixstowe Southampton North-West England 64 454 446 Yorkshire 152 431 472 West Midlands 204 330 266 Scotland 438 841 860 Ireland 117 559 396 Northern Ireland 136 643 480 North-East England 332 576 704 • Round trip mileages by road compared to Southern Ports • Ireland are nautical miles Better located for an import DC than the golden triangle?

  • Dredging: Emerging Environmental Issues
    DREDGING AND SUSTAINABILITY IN NW ENGLAND SITE VISIT (1100-1300) AND HALF DAY SEMINAR (1400-1700) Tuesday 8th October 2019 PEEL PORTS GROUP, MARITIME CENTRE, PORT OF LIVERPOOL, LIVERPOOL L21 1LA This combined CEDA UK and Young CEDA event is open to all (non CEDA members welcomed) and is a free event. We hope that it will provide a useful and interesting discussion on the topic of dredging and sustainability focused on the North West of England. It also provides a good opportunity for networking and meeting those involved in CEDA in the UK and is aimed at anyone working or studying in a related field. The Port of Liverpool is one of the largest, busiest and most diverse ports in the UK, sitting on both sides of the River Mersey. The port was recently extended with the construction of Liverpool2, a new £400m deep- water container terminal, which opened in 2016. This has doubled the port’s container capacity and made it one of the country’s best-equipped and connected terminals. The day will consist of a site visit around Liverpool2 in the morning followed by an afternoon seminar; however, you are very welcome to just attend the seminar as placed are limited for the site visit. Liverpool is an excellent example of where both dredging and the adoption of a sustainable approach is vital for the ongoing success of the port. The seminar will consider various projects in the North West of England. Please note that the site visit will be restricted on numbers, following registration below.
