Barcelona
Apart from being a major European tourist attraction Barcelona also boasts a major Mediterranean port with a surprisingly big hinterland on the European continent.
The Port of Barcelona is set up as a large network of facilities and services spread out through out the region, accessible to clients and offering comprehensive door-to-door logistics services.
The port premises, in addition to being a major territorial and economic infrastructure, serve as the hub for this set of service centres (port terminals, the Logistics Activities Area, inland maritime terminals, intermodal terminals, depots, etc.), which have global reach and are linked by multimodal transport corridors. At these facilities, which operators manage in a decentralized fashion, clients have access to a wide range of handling, transport, logistic sand value-added services that facilitate their foreign-trade operations. The Port of Barcelona own brand-name services -the e-commerce platform and PortIC document interchange, the quality standards and guarantees and the Customer Service Department- make it easier for users to arrange and track their shipments.
