Communication barriers in the international logistics of Ukrainian enterprises and ways to overcome them

Abstract

Communication barriers in the international logistics of Ukrainian enterprises are becoming more visible under the influence of European integration, growing cross-border transport flows and the transition of partners to digital data exchange. In practice, logistics increasingly depends on how quickly and accurately a producer, freight forwarder, carrier, customs broker, warehouse operator, port, border crossing point and customer exchange information. A delayed update on cargo status, an error in a document or a different interpretation of requirements by partners may affect delivery time more seriously than the transport distance itself.
