Further, the project improved the general competitiveness of the logistics companies through providing a setting for creating Pan-Baltic partnerships and easy access to ICT-tools. Achievements: NeLoC has produced a Best Practice Handbook for Logistics Centres in the Baltic Sea Region containing information for sustainable and effective logistics centre network activities and a Service Concept Report for Logistics Centres comprising innovative service concepts, which can be exploited within the frame of a logistics centre.
