Nowadays, container transport services play a substantial role in global cargo transportation by serving as an intermodal between the exporter and importer. Container shipping has become increasingly important over the past few decades due to its obvious advantages. However, Vietnam's container market has shown severely ongoing competition among numerous domestic and foreign shipping lines resulting in serious consequences occurring such as the freight rates substantially decreasing within the last ten years. In fact, Vietnam's sea lanes have become more defensive to cover the losses of shipping companies. Selection of criteria for competitive evaluation of container transport companies is necessary to help recognize the problems within the enterprise especially relating to its position in the market and from here, business management are able to put strategic plans in place and reasonable policy in order to be able to survive and grow.

Purpose - The antecedent to the relationship between the effect of the characteristics of strategic alliances and the performance of container liner shipping companies has been investigated in this study as container liner shipping companies' strategic alliances. It affects positively and negatively home, partner, and the third parties' performance in container liner shipping companies. Extensive literature reviews on shipper's strategic alliances reveal that strategic alliances in financial and non-financial performance of container liner shipping companies show the performance such as economic effects, business performance, global supply chain management performance, customer satisfaction, and forward integration and backward integration performance. The purpose of this study is to test empirically that the relationship between the characteristics of strategic alliances and financial and non-financial performance in container liner shipping companies. Structured equation modeling and confirmatory factor analysis were used to test the hypothesis using AMOS statistics program. Most previous researches focused on the relationship between the characteristics of strategic alliances and alliance types. There are few empirical studies that focus on business performance data because it is difficult to collect data in container liner shipping companies. However, this research measures financial and non-financial performance differently compared with the previous researches focusing on the characteristics of strategic alliances and alliance types measurements. Research design, data, and methodology - The conceptual model for the study is based on the studies of Lim (2010), Chen & Zhen (2009), and Wang & Meng (2014). The model is built around the factors of characteristics of strategic alliances and business performance. Cost, marketing, and service factors are regarded as proxy for the characteristics of strategic alliances. The financial and non-financial performance are regarded as proxy for the performance of strategic alliances. Based on the analysis of one hundred cases such as forwarder, shipper, and liner shipping companies, this study uses structural equation modeling to verify the effects of the characteristics of strategic alliances on business performance. Conclusions - This study provides container liner shipping companies to get some policy and practical implications in terms of the characteristics of strategic alliances and business performance. First, the cost factor for alliances characteristics has a positively significant influence on the financial and non-financial performance of strategic alliances. The cost factor relationship between high and low performance group does not have a significant difference on the performance of strategic alliances. Second, the marketing factor of alliances characteristics has a positively significant influence on the financial and non-financial performance of strategic alliances. The high performance group's marketing factor has a great non-financial performance than low performance group, but the low performance group's marketing factor has a grater financial performance than high performance group factor does. Third, the service factor of alliances characteristics has a negative influence on the non-financial performance of strategic alliances. The high performance group's service factor has a great non-financial performance than low performance group. Based on the findings from this study, related implications and future avenues deserve to be discussed.

Recently, brand equity is paid much attention in various industries. However, container liner shipping companies are still unfamiliar with this concept, and also the brand equity model has not been tested yet in shipping context. This study, therefore, aims to measure the relative importance of brand equity factors of container liner shipping companies by employing AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process). This study concludes that perceived quality, in particular cost-related service quality, is the most influential factor of brand equity, while weak support is found for brand association. In addition to this, group comparisons were conducted between shipping companies, freight forwarders and academics. The results will be useful as they firstly define brand equity and its role in shipping context, highlighting the significance of brand management to container liner shipping firms. This evaluation is not an end in itself, but will eventually be utilised as a tool to build competitive advantage which cannot be easily imitated by competitors.

Purpose - Conventional supply chains (SCs) must identify facilitating roles, such as port or terminal operators, shipping companies, and freight forwarders in executing the various logistical activities that support the organizational strategies of shippers. Meanwhile, supply chain collaborative practices can engender a willingness to share relevant and mutually helpful information. To this end, this study seeks to identify the impact of supply chain integration (SCI) on information sharing (IS) and the operational performance (OP) of Korea's container-shipping industry from the perspective of social capital. Design/methodology - We established the research model for this study based on previous studies. In administering the survey, we obtained 149 valid responses from employees working in liner-shipping companies and freight forwarders in Korea. With the collected questionnaires, the study's hypotheses were tested using SPSS 26.0 and AMOS 26.0 Findings - The results indicate the existence of a mediated relationship where the impact of SCI on OP is mediated by IS. The effect of external integration (EI) on OP is fully mediated by information quality (IQ) and information-sharing content (ISC). Furthermore, EI, IQ and ISC partially mediate the relationship between internal integration (II) and OP. Originality/value - This study expands SCI contexts, where ISC and IQ respectively serve as bridges between EI and OP which has crucial implications for container-shipping companies in terms of improving their performance.

2017년 초 한진해운의 파산에 따라 세계 컨테이너 운송시장에서 차지하는 국적선의 비중 및 역할이 현저하게 줄어들었다. 이에 우리나라의 수출입 기업 뿐만아니라 항만들도 위기를 맞게 되었다. 더구나 미국 트럼프 대통령이 촉발한 관세 및 무역전쟁은 북미 향발 화물의 증가에 부정적인 영향을 초래하고 있다. 반대로 초대형 선사들인 머스크나 CMA CGM과 자국 내 컨테이너 선사간 인수 합병한 중국 및 일본 컨테이너 선사들은 국내 유일의 세계 10대 국적 컨테이너 선사이던 한진해운이 파산함에 따라 선복 공급 감소의 반사이익을 얻고 있다. 수출입화물의 무역거래에서 외국적선사의 권력이 더욱 커지고 있다. 이에 따라 부산 및 광양 등 국내 항만은 해외선사와의 협상력 약화가 초래 되어 선사 유치가 더욱 어려워질 수 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 상황에서 사회연결망의 위상학적 분석과 LSCI 및 CPCI의 경제학적 분석능력을 결합하여 2007년과 2017년의 전 세계 컨테이너 운송네트워크를 비교하였다. 연구결과 항만의 역할을 파악할 수 있으며, CPCI가 중심성지수 및 물동량자료와 높은 상관관계를 갖기 때문에 별도의 중심성 분석 없이도 필요한 중심성지수가 갖는 의미를 활용할 수 있다. 본 연구결과를 우리나라 선사들의 기항 전략과 우리항만의 제휴항만전략 및 발전전략에 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

해상운송 산업에서는 공급과 수요의 불균형이 지속적으로 증가하면서 세계 주요 해운선사들이 해운 시황에 따른 선복량을 탄력적으로 조절하기 위해 블랭크 세일링을 주요 수단으로 사용하고 있다. 일반적으로 블랭크 세일링은 중국의 춘절 기간에 맞추어 많이 실시되어 왔지만, 2020년부터 시작된 글로벌 팬데믹과 미국·중국 간 무역 전쟁 등과 같은 특수한 상황으로 인해 최근 해운선사들은 기존 대비 큰 규모의 블랭크 세일링을 실시하였다. 이러한 블랭크 세일링은 화물 운송 지연에 직접적 영향을 미치기 때문에 기업과 소비자의 측면에서 부정적인 영향을 초래할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 이에 선제적으로 대응하기 위해 포아송 회귀모형과 음이항 회귀모형을 활용하여 해상운임 결정요인이 해운선사의 블랭크 세일링에 미치는 영향력을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 포아송 회귀분석의 2M의 경우 유의한 변수로 글로벌 컨테이너 해상물동량, 컨테이너 선복량, 컨테이너선 해체량, 컨테이너선 신조선가지수, OECD 인플레이션을 도출하였고, 음이항 회귀분석의 Ocean Alliance의 경우 글로벌 컨테이너 해상물동량과 컨테이너선 발주량을, THE Alliance의 경우 컨테이너선 선복량과 금리를, Non-Alliance의 경우 국제유가, 글로벌 공급망 압력지수, 컨테이너선 선복량, OECD 인플레이션을, Total Alliance의 경우 컨테이너선 선복량과 금리를 유의한 변수로 도출할 수 있었다.

Environment of marine transportation market is changing rapidly. Due to globalization of world economy, marine transportation of cargos, especially trade using container boxes, is increasing dramatically. Fierce competition in the global market of container transportation forces the shipping industry to seek the economy of scale to reduce transportation cost, and drives the merge and alliance of liner shipping companies. Mega-sized container ships, having capacity over 10,000 TEU, were introduced, and appeared recently, in order to reduce the unit transportation cost. Korean shipping and shipbuilding companies are competitive, and have considerable market share in the global market. Even though both industries are inter-connected through ships and have many common interests in order to enlarge the global market share, inter-relation between two industries is surprisingly insignificant. In this paper current issues in the process of environmental change of marine cargo transportation are reviewed, and inter-relation of shipping and shipbuilding industries is discussed. Suggestions for inter-related development of Korean shipping and shipbuilding industries are given, and means for mutually beneficial collaboration are suggested.
