LPI Based Comparison of Turkey And Mexican Logistics Sector

Abstract

Transportation costs are the main
parameters directly affecting the country's economy. This parameter is not only
increasing day by day due to unsustainable fossil fuels, but also brings heavy
burdens to economies. In case of Turkey, logistic strategies had to be
considered inevitably. For this purpose, along general comparison made by
taking the data of logistic performance index (LPI) issued biennially by World
Bank into consideration, Mexico included in the same category in said index has
been taken as the sample and then the logistic sector has been analyzed and
compared. As a result, it was shown that Mexico and Turkey had poor transport
infrastructure, lack of legislation, lack of independent logistics management
and lack of independent port authority. In addition to them, it has been seen
that the railway infrastructure should be less developed than behind the road
infrastructure and the ports should be strengthened with highway-rail
connections. Geostrategically, both countries have a similar structure but also
have lack of data on the logistics sector. It has been asserted that regions
for combined transport in both countries should be identified and logistics
areas should be established.
