Advantages and disadvantages of traditional wharf

1 Promote the functional differentiation of port warehousing. On the one hand, the use of containers creates better conditions for the loading, unloading, storage, storage and custody of goods, and also facilitates the inspection and supervision of customs, thus promoting the development of bonded warehouses and export supervised warehouses; On the other hand, due to the increasing containerization rate of cargo transportation, the proportion of bulk cargo in cargo transportation is declining, and the demand for ordinary bulk cargo warehouses is relatively reduced. Therefore, port logistics enterprises are required to change the structure of existing warehouses and promote the development of ordinary warehouses to modern automated warehouses.

2. Put forward new requirements for the production capacity and operational efficiency of logistics enterprises. The supporting yard equipment and transportation equipment must also be sufficient, so the port logistics system is required to have a larger storage area and a more advanced automatic and information-based operation system to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the operation.

3. It promotes the cooperation between the wharf and the shipping company. In order to adapt to the development trend of large-scale container ships, the investment risk of building or rebuilding container terminals in ports has greatly increased. In order to reduce investment risks, many terminal companies will consider cooperating with liner companies. As far as the development trend of global shipping business is concerned, the cooperation between liner companies and terminals and the investment in port logistics are also becoming a development trend.
