A STUDY ON THE OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE AND SERVICE QUALITY OF TUTICORIN PORT

Journal Title: International Journal of Management, IT and Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 5

Abstract

Seaports are important interfaces in the supply chain between sea and land transportation and a component of freight distribution as the entrance of produce, merchandise and passengers to a country, but as well as the exit door to all the exports to the international markets. Seaports are points of convergence of inland and coastal transportation systems, defining a seaport's hinterland. This function may be direct, as freight reaches a port directly through road transportation, or indirect as freight reaches a seaport through an inland port (e.g., rail station) or through traffic consolidation at a regional seaport and shipped by coastal transportation. Likewise, seaports are points of distribution to inland and coastal transportation systems, defining a seaport's foreland.
