“…In this understanding, logistics centres facilitate the development of companies and impact the regional economy (the city or agglomeration). Here one may refer, for example, to Palšaitis and Bazaras's (2004) definition, which treats the logistics centre as a place where logistics services and other logistics activities concentrate, and through which the companies carry out their customer service tasks.…”

Globalization processes determine the necessity to ascertain and use effectively the competitive advantages of port logistics systems on national and international levels. The purpose of the research is to analyse the impact of port logistics systems using the concept of port-centric logistics systems in small countries with the aim to increase their competitiveness. The use of the term "a logistics system" has been determined; therefore, it is expedient to describe the comprehensive application of the term "a logistics system", which by implication must cover all elements of 8R principle. The authors ascertained competitiveness forms of port-centric logistics systems, dictated by the levels of the competition between ports: between whole ranges of ports or coastlines, ports in different countries, individual ports in the same country, operators or providers of facilities within the same port and between different modes of transport. The activities of port logistics systems must be investigated in a complex manner taking into account the factors and levels of a country's competitiveness. Considering the particularity of port logistics systems, its functionality and effectiveness, a country's economic growth and competitiveness are based on logistic flexibility. However, the particularity of a country's economy determines the forms and nature of interconnections and processes in the structure of port logistics systems. Therefore, the competitive advantage of a small country could be generated through the improvement of effectiveness rates and indexes of the activities of port logistics systems. Type of the article: Theoretical article.

This paper focuses on logistics centre concept and benefits for users. Intermodal benefit, forwarders impact, IT solutions, new transport flows due to synergy, better supply chain management, additional services, cost sharing, economies of scale, quality of the services, know‐how, joint marketing impact, and benefit for growth of third‐party logistics services are presented. The main bottlenecks such as duration of planning logistics centres process, pressure to land use for other purposes and problems caused by legislation are described. Results of pilot study of benefits from business cooperation are presented and concluded as well.
