  2. Freight Frameworks: From Global to Local Production Global Gateways Regional Distribution Corridors Local Consumption Terminals Commodity Chains Transportation Integrated Transport Systems

  3. Insertion in the Global Trade Framework  Imbalanced Trade Imbalanced Container Flows Commodity Chains UPS Willow Springs Distribution Center, Chicago

  4. Containerized Cargo Flows along Major Trade Routes, 2005 11.7 Imports (Million TEUs) Europe Exports (Million TEUs) 8.9 Million TEUs Growth (2000-2005) 9.9 (+120%) 1.8 (-18%) 5.6 (+55%) 3.3 (+14%) 17.2 9.9 13.9 (+148%) Asia USA 4.3 (+30%) 23.8 6.1

  5. Balance of Containerized Cargo Flows along Major Trade Routes, 1995-2006 (in millions of TEUs)

  6. Sectors of American Imports of Asian Goods Through Maritime Container Shipping, 2004 (in TEUs)

  7. Commodity Chains and Added Value High Globalization R&D Sales / Service Marketing Branding Added value Distribution Design Concept Manufacturing Logistics Low Commodity chain

  8. Insertion in the Transportation and Logistical Framework  Gateways and Corridors Containerization and the Velocity of Freight Shipping Networks Global Port Operators APL Distribution Center, Shenzhen, China

  9. Elements of the Maritime / Land Interface Foreland (Shipping Network) Maritime Freight Distribution Port System Gateways Road Rail Coastal / Fluvial Inland FreightDistribution Corridors and Hubs Hinterland (FDC)

  10. Traffic at the 50 Largest Container Ports, 2005

  11. World Container Traffic, 1980-2005. Reaching Peak Growth? Adoption Acceleration Peak Growth Maturity 2010(?) - 2002-2010(?) 1992-2002 1966-1992 Divergence

  12. The Velocity of Freight Transshipment Speed Speed barrier Future improvements Pull Logistics Logistical threshold Containerization Push Logistics Shipment Speed
