Internationalisation of Logistics Systems: How Chinese and German Companies Enter Foreign Markets

By Michael Bohn, Frank Straube, Shihua Ma

Over the past decades the world economy has reached an unprecedented level of global integration. As markets are being liberalised and trade barriers continuously being removed, companies are in an ongoing process of internationalisation. For the internationalisation of business activities, Global Logistics Systems play a significant role. Seven of the most important regions for internationalisation are covered by this survey. The motivation of the survey is to review companies' internationalisation procedures from a logistics perspective. This is one of the first comprehensive surveys on global logistics. The poll which forms the basis of the analysis was carried out simultaneously in China and Germany. This volume is published in both English and Chinese.
