<![CDATA[Port-centric infrastructure plays a strategic role in integrating multiple port services, including passenger transport, cargo distribution, industrial activities, and fisheries-based operations such as fish auctions; however, existing studies often examine these functions in isolation, leading to a fragmented understanding of port systems. This study aims to systematically assess the role of port-centric infrastructure in enabling integrated port services using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Data were collected from Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, yielding 78 initial records, of which five articles were selected after a rigorous screening and eligibility process. The findings indicate that current research is dominated by cargo logistics and industrial integration, while passenger services and fisheries-related activities remain underexplored, reflecting an incomplete representation of ports as multi-functional systems, particularly in developing maritime contexts. The novelty of this study lies in proposing a multi-pillar perspective that integrates passenger, logistics, industrial, and fisheries functions within a unified port-centric framework. This research contributes theoretically by advancing a more holistic conceptualization of port systems and practically by offering insights for policymakers and port authorities to strengthen cross-sectoral integration, while future research should focus on empirical validation and governance mechanisms supporting integrated port development.]]>
