About this book

The third-party logistics industry is a growing field. This is the first practical handbook to support managers in the creation and negotiation of logistics contracts from the legal and economic perspective. The book provides the general framework and an extensive analysis of the content, structure and best practices of logistics contracts.

Reviews

'...covers in full detail all the aspects that should be addressed by any logistics contract. In fact, I am convinced that this book will help many of its readers to consider issues that might otherwise have been forgotten. Years of experience designing, negotiating and drafting logistics contracts are condensed in this fine piece of work that will soon become a reference for all European Logistics Directors.' - Federico Sabrià, Professor, IESE Business School, University of Navarra, Spain
