A model for determining the competitiveness of the ports and traffic routes

In order to determine seaports value on a particular geographic area, the research of ports is mainly focused on the performance measurement in accordance with the volume of traffic and productivity on a global scale. As links in the transport and logistics chain, ports are continuously adapting to the demands of customers in international trade to achieve an adequate level of competitiveness. It is necessary and indispensable for the ports of Trieste, Koper and Rijeka to cooperate and join their efforts regarding joint competition with the north-west European and the Black Sea ports. The major objective is to determine which one among the three observed North Adriatic ports, is the most competitive transit port for the selected points of destination in the hinterland, taking into consideration multiple types of cargo. In order to achieve the set objective, in this paper the collective competitiveness index is proposed.
