“…The results underline the role of warehousing as a value-adding capability, supporting the idea that the warehouse and the activities performed inside are key elements for the logistics activities and the firms' overall competitiveness (Abushaikha, 2018). However, at the same time, the ever-increasing consumption of logistics services, as McKinnon (2009) suggests, generates a large demand for logistics floor space, which consumes large amounts of land and potentially contributes to negative externalities, including higher land costs, wages and congestion (Sun et al, 2018;Hylton and Ross, 2017).…”

“…For instance, the increased attention to cost reduction and an increase in flexibility is supposed to affect location requirements. From this viewpoint, logistics providers could find it preferable to settle into logistics clusters to benefit from geographical aggregation (Abushaikha, 2018;Sun et al, 2018;Hylton and Ross, 2017;Rivera et al, 2016).…”

“…Several benefits are linked to the logistics clustering. First, the geographic location of the logistics cluster gives convenient access to intermodal transportation facilities and regional markets, consequently reducing operational and transportation costs (Sun et al, 2018). Proximity of firms also facilitates collaboration among them, as they serve different industries by sharing resources, thereby enhancing expansion opportunities (Rivera et al 2016).…”

“…Proximity of firms also facilitates collaboration among them, as they serve different industries by sharing resources, thereby enhancing expansion opportunities (Rivera et al 2016). Sun et al (2018) show that productivity gain emerges as another important benefit associated with logistics agglomeration. Aggregation can also be boosted by policymakers, e.g.…”

In recent years the logistics outsourcing market has significantly expanded, driving also the growth of the logistics real estate sector. However, these subjects have been investigated separately, without empirical evidence on the assessment of warehouse features, nor studies matching those with 3PL providers' needs. This paper aims to fill this gap by providing a deeper understanding of the alignment between the 3PL industry's needs and the logistics real estate offering. An extensive literature review was used to investigate the characteristics of the logistics real estate industry and define the present and future challenges for the 3PL industry. Afterwards, 3PL warehouse features were analysed through data collected on 75 logistics buildings located in Italy. Results indicate that the logistics real estate seems relatively prepared to support the 3PL industry's needs. However, such alignment could be further strengthened through investments by the logistics real estate towards environmental sustainability and warehouse automation.

“…Through the empirical analysis of the data of Hubei Province, the evolution process and stage of the logistics network in Hubei Province are obtained. The results show that the Wuhan logistics area has the characteristics of hub radiation network, while the Jingyi logistics area and Xiangxi logistics area are still in a low-level equilibrium stage ( Sun et al, 2018 ).…”

Regional logistics is an important part of the regional economy. It plays an important role in optimizing the allocation of regional resources, promoting the upgrading of regional industrial structure, and promoting the sustainable development of regional economy. It is known as the “accelerator” of regional economic growth. Under the background of the expanding regional economic differences in China, this article focuses on the important components of regional economy, researching on regional logistics in different regions. This article focuses on the regional logistics development level, the internal mechanism of regional logistics promoting regional economic growth, the current situation and influencing factors of regional logistics development level differences, and the regional logistics development level differences. The purpose of this article is to study the application of artificial intelligence technology to the spatial difference analysis of China’s regional logistics development and the construction of information network platform under the background of the new economy. In this article, factor analysis is used to construct the index system. The research shows that the intensity of regional logistics connection is significantly enhanced, the regional logistics network is further improved, and a relatively complete multilevel regional logistics network structure is basically formed. In addition, there are great differences in the level of logistics development among regions. The characteristics of the spatial distribution circle in the eastern, central, and western regions are obvious, which is positively related to the economic development, in the Pearl River Delta with the strongest comprehensive competitiveness. The score coefficient of the Yangtze River Delta logistics area is 1.464, and the score coefficient of the northwest logistics weakest area is −0.328. The development of regional logistics can focus on the construction of logistics park, the construction of logistics network system, the progress of regional logistics technology, and the improvement of logistics efficiency. The construction of logistics park is conducive to the integration of regional logistics resources, improves the utilization efficiency of regional logistics resources, forms the economies of scale, and then reduces the transaction cost of the whole region.

SummaryIn this paper, standard deviation ellipse, spatial autocorrelation, cold hot spot analysis, kernel density estimation, and other spatial analysis models are first used to analyze the evolution process and spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of A‐level logistics enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta. Secondly, a regression model is used to analyze the main factors driving the evolution of the spatial and temporal patterns of A‐level logistics enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta. The research finds that the development of A‐level logistics enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration generally presents a trend that increasing number and unbalanced development of enterprises of different levels. Regional economic strength, regional policy, transportation accessibility, cargo transportation capacity, and port development level are the main factors driving the evolution of the spatial and temporal pattern of A‐level logistics enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta.
