Product Description
Review
"This book provides valuable insights in the important role of transport as a facilitator of trade and economic development. Managing global supply chains becomes increasingly complex and requires integration and coordination of processes across the globe. The book discusses the role of A.P. Moller - Maersk, the world's largest container shipping firm, in connecting developing countries, such as Vietnam, to developed countries. The reader gets an up-to-date description of Maersk's container business in South East Asia, as well as a profound analysis of the effects of Maersk's investments in building container terminals and integrating global production processes. I recommend it for students of international economics and supply chain management as well as for practitioners."Professor Tage Skjott-Larsen, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark
Product Description
The book presents the findings of a study of the world's largest container shipping firm, A.P. Moller - Maersk and its role in integrating developing countries into the global economy. The study focuses on A.P. Moller - Maersk's container business in South East Asian developing countries, in particular Vietnam. Building on an extensive empirical analysis of A.P. Moller - Maersk's container business in South East Asia, the book suggests that A.P. Moller - Maersk's container business may play an important role in the integration of global production processes, not only by moving goods from A to B and coordinating multiple modes of transport, but also by coordinating and integrating increasingly atomized production processes at a global scale. By analysing A.P. Moller - Maersk's activities in South East Asia, the book con-tributes to our understanding of the role of container shipping services in economic develop-ment processes.
