The study approach is to assess and contextualize the opportunity to better position Greece\u2019s logistics sector in order for Greece to become a more capable, more competitive and more attractive gateway linking Central Europe with international and intercontinental markets. To support the positioning of Greece, especially the port of Piraeus and Thessaloniki, the analysis develops the following steps: Quantitative mapping of the Central European Hinterland trades with a focus on south-east Asia (China) in order to understand the amount of freight traffic and the routes followed. This includes the intercontinental railway route across Asia between Europe and China. Operational mapping of the freight trades by involving relevant stakeholders (freight forwarders, intermodal operators, big retailers, etc.) mainlybased in Central Europe. &nbsp; &nbsp; The analysis provides a review of: maritime ports in Greece (Thessalon\u00edki and Piraeus) and in Europe (Hamburg, Gdansk, Rotterdam, etc.), serving the Central European Market, freight corridors serving the Central European Market: the Pan European Corridor X and the Orient\/East-Med TEN-T Corridor. In this study, TRT lead an international consortium of companies based in Greece (OPTILOG) and Austria (MC Mobility Consultants)\u00a0 to better cover the geographical scope of the study and with the partnership of MDST Transmodal as transport modeler expert in the container cargo shipping. &nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":13552,"menu_order":30,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true},"portfolio-types":[243,250],"class_list":["post-11689","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio-types-projects","portfolio-types-studies"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/11689","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11689"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13552"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11689"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio-types","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trt.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio-types?post=11689"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
