Logistics centres have proved to be an essential part of global logistics networks in order to provide more effective terminal handling and cost-effective total logistics solutions for various transport flows. Logistics centres may have different business ideas, position in relation to markets, trade and industry, or systems of logistics service providers. These logistics elements are usually established on a market basis,
but municipalities may also be active and even launch initiatives to establish logistics areas. The case study in this research indicates that such an idea launched by municipalities has been successful, although
the construction processes itself is driven by operators and private companies. The role of municipalities
as a driving force is therefore very valuable.
