LOGISTICS ATTRACTIVENESS OF POLAND IN RELATION TO LOGISTICS CENTRES AND GLOBAL COMPETITION
Journal Title: Polish Journal of Management Studies - Year 2016, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the attractiveness of the Polish logistics to internal and external investors in the dimension of national, international and global circumstances, with a focus on the creation of logistics centres. Apart from the generally available statistics, the study used indicators of logistics efficiency, the Business Process Outsourcing Index, the Shared Service Location Index and the Global Service Location Index. The analyses carried out were the basis for identifying areas for improvement in order to increase the efficiency of Polish logistics against global competition. Based on the results obtained, against global markets, Poland has been evaluated as attractive for the implementation of logistics activities mainly in terms of technical infrastructure and delivery times. At the same time, against European competition, Poland is currently one of the most attractive locations in terms of renting warehouse and logistics due to the location of logistics centres in central Poland.<br/><br/>
