The present thesis deals with the existence of concentration in inland terminals.
More specifically, the Hamburg - Le Havre range, one of the most competitive
port areas in Europe and worldwide, is being examined.
Analyzing the historical evolution of ports, we see their transition from simple
loading and unloading centers to global distribution networks. Due to the steadily
increasing volume of cargo through ports as well as the capacity problems in
them, inland terminals have been the ideal solution. Both the increasing
importance of ports and their inland terminals lead many market players to try to
gain a share of them.
In order to prove the existence of concentration in inland terminals, the
concentration being tested in ownership level and service level. The method used
is based on secondary data, data from websites and databases, which are
recorded and analyzed.
