This study provides a theoretical background on container port logistics in global supply chains. A descriptive analysis including a literature review was carried out in order to achieve the study. This study shows that the container port logistics chain involves all levels of organizational units throughout the supply chain. Therefore, it ensures coordination and exchanges in terms of physical ows, nancial ows and informational ow in such a way that the goods are handled and distributed in the right kind. In addition, the analysis nds that the logistics chain required to be evolved with the international changes of maritime transport in order to keep the competitive of seaport. Thus, there is a need to optimize all seaport activities to attain the bene ts of the logistics chain. Moreover, this study contributes to the eld by exploring the container port logistics integration concept. One of the important ndings of this study is that the port is central to logistics—the multidimensional system with a complex activities. Consequently, the ndings are relevant to all actors such as transport companies and logistics service providers.
