Explore the evolving landscape of last-mile logistics through the lens of regionalization, containerization, and supply chain differentiation. Delve into the central role of inland terminals in streamlining transportation networks and optimizing the final leg of the supply chain. This comprehensive study navigates the complexities of terminalization, terminal networks, and the integration of various modes of transportation for efficient cargo flow.
