Efficient supply chain networks imply both internationality and intermodality, but also imply actions within countries of different transport policies. Within this contribution, characteristics of efficient supply chains and reciprocal effects with transport policies and recent developments are shown by a case-study on an intermodal consumer goods supply chain. Against the background of global supply chain management trends, challenges and potentials for logistics optimization were identified and linked with current transport policy developments.enIntermodalSupply ChainSustainabilityTransport PolicyIntermodal Transport and Supply Chains : Moving the Global Economypresentation
