“…Izučavanje odnosa fenomena internacionalizacije i prekograničnih logističkih aktivnosti je tema koja je bila predmet razmatranja u ranijim istraživačkim studijama. (Kostiuk et al, 2021;Jarašuniene et al, 2020;Trinkuniene & Aksomitiene, 2017;Kedzior-Laskowska, 2020;Naevestad et al, 2017). Glavni fokus autora je bio usmeren ka ispitivanju pitanja da li proces internacionalizacije utiče na rast prekograničnih logističkih aktivnosti.…”

The internationalization of logistics activities has become inevitable for many transport and logistics companies that intend to expand their business beyond the borders of the national economy. Thanks to this process, i.e., greater dispersion of the value chain and flow of globally exchanged goods and information, there are changes in the characteristics of logistics systems at the global level. The aim of this paper is to point out, based on a comprehensive analysis of the internationalization process, its close connection with cross-border activities of transport-logistics companies. The paper analyzes the road transport activities, on the example of Turkey, due to their highest visibility within the overall logistics activities of the company. Thanks to the favorable geostrategic position of Turkey and the development of the road network, road transport has become the most widespread mode of transport whose role in the logistics sector and the realization of cross-border activities of logistics companies is growing from year to year.

“…It seems that the study's findings largely correlate with the situation of Polish companies in the same sector, being usually poor in capital, having difficult access to external resources and afraid of failure in the foreign markets. In a study of Trinkūnienė and Aksomitienė (2017), the 'intense competition abroad' was diagnosed as the most serious barrier to internationalisation (in the case of transport and logistics operators from the Scandinavian countries and Central Europe who operated in the Baltic states, i.e. Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania).…”

This article analyses conditions of functioning of Polish road transport carriers according to the internationalisation process and its potential effect on the quality of services and competitiveness. Conditions underlying the Polish road transport sector and its position in the EU transport market are discussed along with the factors that determine the quality of services and competitiveness of the carriers. The relationships between quality and competitiveness are also identified to establish the strength and direction of their impact. Considering the specificity of the Polish market of road freight transport (vast supply fragmentation) and growing competitiveness in international markets the objective of this paper is to answer the questions: whether internationalisation processes influence the quality of transport services, and to what extent; if internationalisation processes play a role in the improvement of transport services (competitiveness), and if there is a dependence between the quality of services and competitiveness of road carriers, including the aspect of internationalisation? The data was interpreted using descriptive statistics, an analysis of variance (ANOVA), as well as the determined correlation and determination coefficients. This study identified the significant role of internationalisation on the service quality and competitiveness of carriers. It also confirmed a positive correlation between them. Equally important was the fact that qualified and well-educated staff was the most important factor in improving quality and competitiveness.

The philosophy of the supply chain concept is aimed at the greatest possible alignment of key business functions of all links in the distribution chain in the process of organizing goods and information flows. Applying the concept of an integrated supply chain between multiple organizations further increases the importance of operational logistics activities, improves process optimizations, and confirms the importance of logistics performance for profitability. Emphasis is placed on the sustainability of the supply chain in Serbia, but also on the broader context of the value chain of economic sectors in the Republic of Serbia. The aim of the chapter is focused on highlighting both positive and limiting factors (the real situation), with the author's wish that the recommendation of good practice and the results of this research be implemented in Serbia.
