Role of Logistic Operators in Directing Cargo Flows of the Cargo Center

Logistički operater je čimbenik koji uspješno dizajnira i optimizira logističku mrežu koja je sve više integrirana u globalni gospodarski sustav te obavlja razne logističke aktivnosti od točke isporuke do točke primitka i uz minimalne uložene resurse maksimalno zadovoljava zahtjeve tržišta. Teret je, u većini slučajeva, tokom transporta potrebno prekrcati i otpremiti na daljnji transport. Uz osnovne manipulacijske i prekrcajne radnje, dio tereta treba prepakirati, paletizirati ili skladištiti, sve navedene radnje odvijaju se u robno-transportnom centru. Na protok količine tereta kroz robno-transportni centar utječu logistički operateri svojim direktnim djelovanjem, odnosno usmjeravanjem robnih tokova kroz određene robno-transportne centre.Logistic operator is a factor which successfully designs and optimizes logistical network that is integrated into global economic system and perform different logistic activities from pick-up point to delivery point, all done with minimum resources but maximizes market’s demands. In most of the cases, during the transport of cargo, transshipment is needed to continue its transport to final destination. Besides basic cargo handling, part of the cargo needs repacking, palletizing or storing, and these processes are done into cargo center. Cargo volume through cargo center depends on logistic operator’s direct influence and directing cargo flows through certain cargo centers
