| Summary: | Polish ports managed to pass apparently without any harm the period of economic transformation. Even at the earliest stage of economic recession, when flow of cargo from Polish exporters was cut down and simultaneously, dynamic development of private shipping business appeared as a new market power, the port activity was not seriously affected. The port managers efficiently used the time of economic transformation to execute the profound reorganization of the ports’
structure. In the Port of Gdansk employee-owned joint stock companies were established. The Szczecin - Swinoujscie Port was divided into several independent companies and Gdynia Port was turned into a holding. The other important steps towards new economic deal were development of the marketing and adaptation of the port structures to
free-market economy environment. |
