With the increase in international trade, logistics activities such as transportation, storage and handling and the companies performing these logistics activities have also increased. However, the fact that companies have physical areas, warehouses and environments such as offices in all regions where they operate causes high costs. For this reason, instead of acquiring property in some regions where they operate, leasing transactions, which are thought to provide lower costs, are carried out by logistics companies and businesses. This is located between the main situations that lead to the establishment of logistics villages. Also, the characteristics and potentials of those logistics villages play an important role in the choice of logistics companies and businesses. In this study, potential efficiencies of the completed 11 logistics villages of the built by the Republic of Turkey State Railways were determined by MOORA method of located between multiple-criteria decision analysis methods. Capacity, total physical area, foreign trade volume, closest free zone, nearest highway, nearest airport, nearest railway and nearest port criteria were used to determine the potential efficiencies of logistic villages. As a result of the analysis, the first three logistics villages with the highest potential efficiency are Köseköy/İzmit, Halkalı/Istanbul and Yenice/Mersin logistics village, respectively. Palandöken/Erzurum logistics village has been determined as the logistics village with the lowest potential efficiency.
