  • Ferryways va faire d’Ostende un port à containers
    Dans le courant de l’année prochaine, l’armement Ferryways, qui assure depuis le mois de février dernier un service roulier entre son terminal ostendais et Ipswich à raison de deux départs par jour dans chaque sens va, compte tenu de la forte progression des containers, containers-citernes et containers routiers, lancer un service parallèle intégralement containérisé, qui aura également une fonction de feeder. Cette évolution aura pour effet de faire également d’Ostende un port à containers, ce qui aura fatalement des implications en matière de dessertes terrestres.

  • La logistique reste le talon d’Achille de l’e-commerce B2C
    Alors qu’il n’y a même pas un an, le monde entier annonçait que le commerce du XXIe siècle serait “très certainement” dominé par internet et le commerce électronique, reléguant le commerce traditionnel aux oubliettes, on en revient aujourd’hui à des positions plus réalistes. En effet, il s’est confirmé que la complexité - et le coût - de la logistique est une entrave au développement du commerce électronique. Deux faits récents illustrent bien ce qui précède: le magasin virtuel new-yorkais Urbanfetch, qui s’était fixé pour ambition de livrer ses marchandises en moins d’une heure a dû fermer ses portes; et le Post Office britannique va utiliser son réseau de bureaux de poste pour permettre aux clients des magasins virtuels d’aller chercher leurs achats, plutôt que de les leur livrer à la maison.
  • P&O Ports poursuit la mise en place d’un réseau mondial de terminaux à containers
    Après Rotterdam dans le cadre d’une joint-venture avec ECT, après Anvers-rive gauche en joint-venture avec P&ONL et le port de Duisbourg, P&O Ports poursuit inlassablement sa stratégie d’implantation d’un réseau mondial de terminaux à containers. Ainsi qu’évoqué précédemment dans ces colonnes, P&O Ports est à la veille de signer un accord portant sur la reprise de la concession d’un terminal à Port Newark, le plus grand terminal du port de New York, ce qui va impliquer un invesrtissement de 650 mio. de dollars.
