Title:Peculiarities of logistics development in Georgia
Authors:Osadze L. T., Gori State University,
Sosanidze M. O., Gori State University,
Kokashvili N. B., Gori State University
Annotation:Methods. This study is based on a comprehensive analysis of the National Transport and Logistics Strategy of Georgia (2023–2030), analytical reports prepared by TBC Capital, the World Bank, and other international organizations, as well as recent scientific publications on logistics, transport systems, supply chain management, and regional economic development. The research combines quantitative and qualitative methodological approaches to ensure a comprehensive assessment of Georgia's logistics sector. Statistical analysis was applied to evaluate key logistics performance indicators and transport dynamics, while expert evaluation was employed to identify the main strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges of the national logistics system. Forecasting methods were used to assess future development trends of the logistics industry, particularly in relation to the Middle Corridor and regional transport integration. Results. The research demonstrates that Georgia possesses substantial potential to strengthen its role as a regional logistics hub owing to its strategic geographical location at the intersection of Europe and Asia. The country's logistics development is supported by ongoing infrastructure modernization, digital transformation of customs procedures, implementation of international transit standards, and increasing integration into global supply chains. At the same time, several challenges remain, including infrastructure capacity constraints, uneven logistics service quality, limited multimodal transport integration, and the need for further digitalization of logistics operations. The study identifies the key factors influencing logistics performance and highlights strategic priorities for improving transport connectivity, enhancing customs efficiency, and increasing the competitiveness of Georgia's logistics sector. Novelty. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the comprehensive evaluation of Georgia's logistics development through the integration of strategic, institutional, operational, and financial perspectives. The research simultaneously examines the implementation of the National Transport and Logistics Strategy (2023–2030), the country's performance according to the Logistics Performance Index (LPI), the adoption of the New Computerized Transit System (NCTS), the development prospects of the Middle Corridor, and the role of management accounting and financial management in improving logistics efficiency. Practical value. The findings confirm that Georgia is steadily reinforcing its position as one of the most important transit countries within the East–West trade corridor and possesses significant opportunities to expand its role in international logistics networks. The recommendations developed in this study may be applied by government institutions, transport authorities, logistics operators, freight forwarding companies, investors, and international organizations to improve logistics infrastructure, optimize transport management, strengthen multimodal transport systems, accelerate digital transformation, and enhance the country's competitiveness in the global logistics market.
