Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2018, Vol 37, Issue 1
Abstract
In the modern world, in Europe and in Poland, many forms of cooperation between states and enterprises can be observed. Many business entities take a lot of effort to offer the most up-to-date services and to prepare sales and marketing networks ready to win on a competitive market. These processes affect transport market as well. The article focuses on global transport services, in particular on the competition in international cargo traffic on the China-Europe route. It is presented on the background of the globalization and competitive processes in transport services. The demand for transport services, resulting from rapid growth of China is discussed, with particular interest in two modes of transport: railway and sea. The article considers the conditions for China-Europe rail transport due to the recent initiatives towards building the "Silk Road". It opens new possibilities for rail transport to compete on the China - Europe route, especially considering the factor of time. The conclusions present the guidelines for further development in the area of transport services on the China-Europe route.
