“…Busan port, which locates in the Southern coast of Korean peninsula, has been regarded the representative gateway of Korean product towards the global market, but other ports such as Incheon port in the Western coast or Ulsan and Pohang port in Eastern coast are also handling more or similar massive quantity of cargo. In addition, according to Lee et al (2014), the concentration of bulk cargos is decreasing over time in Korea, implying that the distribution of ports is not that skewed in Korea.…”

We examine the spillover effect of neighboring ports on regional industrial diversification and their economic resilience using the export data of South Korea from 2006 to 2020. First, we build two distinct product spaces of ports and port regions, and provide direct estimates of the role of neighboring ports as spillover channels spatially linked. This is in contrast to the previous literature that mainly regarded ports as transport infrastructure per se. Second, we confirm that the knowledge spillover effect from neighboring ports had a non-negligible role in sustaining regional economies during the recovery after the economic crisis but its power has weakened recently due to a loosened global value chain.

“…Studies that are related with the dry bulk and general cargo terminals within the scope of value-added services are very limited, and their role in the supply chain needs to be determined. Lee et al (2014) and Balcı et al (2018) also addressed such limitation in the studies about dry bulk terminals. Although value-added perspective of dry bulk and general cargo terminals is widely neglected in the current literature, there are diversified topics on such terminal types studied by scholars in the field.…”

Maritime transportation plays a vital role in the flow of various cargoes within a supply chain system. In this context, seaports have also started undertaking the provision of value-added services in the supply chain management, where logistics costs and service effectiveness are vital. Terminals that handle dry bulk cargoes which have low unit prices and high elasticity to transportation prices, and general cargoes that require different planning and management for almost each operation have significant roles in the chain as well. This study aims to determine and evaluate the role of dry bulk and general cargo terminals in the supply chain with the value-added logistic services by focusing on Aliağa Region. Delphi technique has been employed to shed light on the role of the dry bulk and general cargo terminals and manufacturers in the scope of supply-chain and logistics-based components. Findings indicate that service effectiveness is important as well as operational efficiency in such terminals and service characteristics should be improved to become more supply-chain oriented. Value-added services are considered as a differentiation factor where customers pay great attention.

“…In recent years, inspired by studies on container port systems, a few studies have begun to explore the development pattern of bulk port systems. For instance, Lee et al (2014) point out that the bulk port system in the west coast of Korea has experienced de-concentration. Wang and Ducruet (2014) analyze coal traffic in the Chinese port system and argue that the spatial distribution of coalexporting ports is characterized by the dominance of ports in North China, while the distribution of coal-importing ports is widespread and includs most main ports along the Chinese coast.…”
