“…Van, for example, examined the air cargo competitiveness of European airports and identified the characteristics that determine airport competitiveness [15]. Gökhan, meanwhile, studied the domestic and international industry competition environment in relation to Istanbul Airport and determined the best competitive strategy for Turkey's air cargo industry [16]. Further, in studies at airports in Turkey, Hilal used the analytic network process to analyze airports' competitive advantages [17].…”

A Multi-airport Logistics System (MLS) involves the logistics development of multiple airports in an urban agglomeration. Calculating spatial differentiation in MLS and examining its characteristics have theoretical and practical value. Based on MLS, we established an index system and applied the entropy-criteria importance through the intercriteria correlation weighting method to data from 2019 to evaluate the development and spatial differentiation of multi-airport logistics in four Chinese urban agglomerations in three dimensions: logistics resources, service chains, and market demand. The results showed the following: (1) The Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area showed logistics resource-type development. (2) Given its considerable market demand and service support, the Yangtze River Delta ranked first in the service-chain aspect. (3) The market-demand performance of the Chengdu–Chongqing Double Cities Economic Circle was poor. (4) Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei showed mediocre performance in all three aspects. Based on the findings, we make suggestions for MLS development in urban agglomerations for the purpose of achieving high-quality development and supporting China’s overall national transportation network.

“…Although several industry analysis tools exist to analyse business environments, there remains a consensus among authors that Porter's five forces framework remains the most widely applied [14,15,16,17,18] (Wellner and Lakotta, 2020). The five forces framework has found applications across several industries, for instance; in higher education [16,18]; Cooperative banks [17]; railway industries (Wellner and Jakotta, 2020); natural gas [19]; airport industries [20]; manufacturing industry [21] and, tourism education [22].…”

Aim: This study intended to analyse the Zanzibar seaweed industry’s (ZSI) profitability potential by adopting Porter’s five forces industry analysis framework. The objective was to identify factors in its structure contributing to the industry’s ongoing primary challenge of low returns. Methodology: The study was conducted on Zanzibar island in the United Republic of Tanzania. A case study design approach was adopted. The study’s sample consisted of seaweed farmers, exporters and officials from government institutions linked to the industry. Seaweed farmers were selected through multistage and quota sampling. Exporters were chosen based on experience, i.e. at least five years of operations and above. Government officials were selected through purposive and convenience sampling. The study utilised both primary and secondary data. A triangulation approach was adopted for data collection. Data analysis was done through thematic analysis, descriptive statistics and literature review. Results were adapted into Porter’s framework for further analysis. The threat level for each Porter’s force was determined by weighing their corresponding driving factors, and respondents rated the final results based on the perceived threat level. Results: The study found that the Zanzibar seaweed industry has low profitability potential. Threats emanate from the industry’s lack of entry barriers, several available cheap and high-performing substitutes, low switching costs and high bargaining power of buyers and suppliers. The government’s role in promoting the industry’s activities is almost non-existent. Similarly, the industry’s production methods were found to be still traditional. Innovative activities were found to be minimal. In terms of opportunities, the industry remains a viable economic alternative for the rural Zanzibarians due to its low capital entry requirements and short production cycles. The potential for increased income and improved health and nutrition exists if domestic markets are established. The growing global demand for carrageenan also signals the industry’s revenue and income growth potential. Similarly, the ZSI is also a source of economic gender empowerment for rural Zanzibari women. Conclusion: Zanzibar’s seaweed industry’s low profitability potential is a result of its structure, production system and the absent role of the Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar (RGoZ). Due to the unique nature of ZSI challenges, Porter’s generic strategies were found unsuitable. Hence, this study recommends creating a guiding industry business strategy and marketing plan to guide its activities. The industry’s customer base should also be diversified to expand buyer options and minimise risks associated with the global Rhodotypa market’s oligopolistic conditions. The creation of domestic and regional demand is also crucial. The Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar should also step in to give the necessary support, primarily through creating industry policy. Additionally, diversification of ZSI export products through establishing carrageenan extraction industries in Zanzibar is vital.

Since reform and opening, our country’s sports and cultural industries have grown from nothing. Due to the complexity of the evaluation factors and methods used to determine the competitiveness of the sports cultural industry, this paper establishes a seven-dimensional sports cultural industry competition based on the integration and development of the sports tourism industry and national culture, drawing on the theory and methods used to determine the tourism industry’s competitiveness. Based on a fuzzy analysis algorithm, we developed a system for evaluating strength and a model for evaluating the competitiveness of the sports culture industry. According to the results of the evaluation of the competitiveness of the sports culture industry in numerous regions of China, the evaluation method proposed in this paper is superior to the traditional evaluation method and has contributed to the development of China’s sports culture industry.
