Emerging inter-industry partnerships between shipping lines and stevedores: from dispute to cooperation?

Résumé

Stevedoring operations in seaports assumed a dramatic importance for shipping lines, who began securing dedicated berths in many regions since some decades. More recently, the institutional turn in ports drove the overseas expansion of aggressive pure stevedoring companies rapidly taking the control of the market. For quite a long time carriers and pure stevedores fiercely battled each other both for defining the contractual terms of handling services and for securing new concessions in the keyareas. Currently this scenario is slowly changing: the lack of available port spaces and the exacerbation of competition in both markets is leading to early-forms of partnership between such players. This paper aims at revealing the contractual and equity forms of co-operation that are emerging in ports between shipping lines and terminal operators.
