3. State of art of Mediterranean Southern ports
A low development of integrated logistics services: the
offer of logistics services is low developed limiting the
developed,
competitiveness and disadvantaging North-African
Countries despite other emerging Countries.
Primacy of artisanal on wheels transport: it is one of the
main causes of quality problems related to the logistics
sector, reducing the efficiency of the system.
Necessity of reinforcement of logistics sector: it may
increase a positive impact on the costs and on the level
of the services, supporting the collaboration of the key
actors.
