> Unlike a single transport corridor, a logistics network links multiple nodes—ports, transshipment terminals, warehouses, bonded warehouses, and production sites—through a system of coordinated transport links.

Unlike a single transport corridor, a logistics network links multiple nodes—ports, transshipment terminals, warehouses, bonded warehouses, and production sites—through a system of coordinated transport links. The network's structure largely determines transit times to the consignee, the alternative routes available when disruptions occur, and the operating cost per shipment. Large logistics groups and shipping lines operate proprietary global networks; smaller freight forwarders rely on agency networks and cooperative partnerships. A well-dimensioned network shortens transit times, improves delivery reliability, and reduces vulnerability to capacity bottlenecks at individual nodes.
