Abstract
The article investigates issues related to use of logistics in the transport market under the predominance of stream processes. It is noted that along with increase in the share of logistics providers in merchandise forwarding and distribution, many enterprises still do not risk transferring their logistics business to the third parties. The advantages of 4 PL providers are highlighted. The article shows economic efficiency of logistics and reasons hindering its development in Russia and reduction of transport costs by improving logistics services.
