Sažetak
The most of the freight forwarders in Croatia have based their business activities on customs brokerage, which was a succesfull business model up to the accession to the EU. Removal of the customs borders against the EU countries and simplification of the customs procedures had cut down a major part of their incomes. However, integration into the single European market yields some new business opportunities which could compensate the loss of incomes out of customs brokerage. Freight forwarders in Croatia could take advantage of those opportunities by upgrading their competences and expertise towards 4PL segment. It could be successfully facilitated by a closer cooperation with educational institutions in the field of traffic and transport engineering.
