Abstract (eng): | This study concentrates on the analysis and evaluation of the main transportation routes from Europe to Russia. The main research question, of this study, was initially approached on a general level in which ali the main transportation routes are identified and analyzed by comparing the current transport infrastructure, border crossing queues, risks and future transportation route possibilities. Based on the information gathered, the most appropriate transportation routes were selected for further analysis. In this analysis the routes were evaluated against Case Company's requirements for a new transportation setup and its supply chain. This study gives an overview of the background information and limitations of the import legislation in Russia in order to gain a better understanding as to why import into Russian is challenging. It also focuses on the reasons behind the various mies and regulations in Russia. The information presented in this thesis was collected, from various sources, with the intention of gaining objective knowledge and an overview of Russian logistics and the different transportation routes from Europe to Russia. The data was gathered systematically from different databases, independent surveys, literature, articles and interviews. The Finnish consolidation route was evaluated to be the most appropriate route for Case Company with its' current volumes and moderate volume growth. The Finnish route proved to be the most efficient route when taking into consideration total transportation times, predictability of transportation times, border crossing infrastructure, safety and the general infrastructure of the route. The Latvian and Belarusian routes suffer from longer transportation times, smaller border crossing capacities and seasonal driving restrictions. |
