Abstract
In investigating a principal area of a certain African country's total distribution network, viz the cargo handling operations within its main Port, a logistics systems model was used as a basis of the research design to measure the current cargo handling performance. In this article, the reader is taken step‐by‐step through the research method, data collection and analysis, hopefully to demonstrate the practical application of the model and the implications for its further use.
