This study investigates the supply chain uncertainty and risk on the logistics performance of Pakistan courier industry. The three main constructs under the supply chain uncertainty are company side, customer side, and environmental side risk uncertainty. The data has been gathered by means of a questionnaire with a seven scale measurement from which 200 responses have been gathered from the managers, staff members to higher-level managers of the Pakistan Courier industry. The study has used structural equation modeling for the data analysis. The study found that there is a significant relationship between the company-side, customer-side and environmental side risks on the logistics performance of the Pakistan courier industry. The statistical analysis clearly reveals that the courier has been facing the major risk that could affect the health and performance of the company, therefore, it is important to focus on the logistics performance as it is the most notable factor to make courier industry efficient and directly interrelates with the company progress and success.

“…Logistics does not only consist physical movement of goods but must be efficient in facilitating movement through document processing, coordination, monitoring and funding activities. Thus, the development of logistics includes infrastructure, systems and stakeholder development (Abdul Aziz Zuraimi et.al, 2012). A rapidly changing market environment and fluctuating customer demand requires efficient logistics process operations (Kovacs Gy, Kot S, 2016).…”

Introduction. Nowadays, it is important for any region to define its place among other regions and to position itself if it wants to provide sustainable and long-term development. Therefore, in the context of the changing external environment, regions have to maintain their own competitiveness. One of the most important factors which determines competitiveness is the level of the region's logistics potential. This is due to the fact that sufficient and good logistics contributes to the region's integration into the global supply chain. Also, a study of the region's logistics potential allows not only to determine the direction of its further development, but also can help managers to make decisions in terms of the development of the enterprise distribution system. The purpose of the article is to determine the development of the enterprise distribution system as part of the enterprise's supply chain based on its regional logistics potential. Results. Using the Logistics Performance Index (LPI), the authors have analysed the logistics potential of Ukraine. It was defined that Ukraine was ranked 61 st among 160 countries in the 2014 survey, which was the best result among the post-Soviet countries. Nevertheless, Ukraine is among the countries with a value of LPI below the average. Thus, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of customs and border management, the quality of trade and transport infrastructure and the professionalism and quality of logistics services. The authors have formulated the essence of logistics potential. It is suggested to identify elements of the regional logistics potential, such as transport potential, storage potential, transit potential, human resources potential, customers and sales potential, marketing and services potential, advantages of the economic and geographic position, as well as the dimensional potential. Based on the proposed structure of the regional logistics, the logistics potential of Sumy region of Ukraine has been evaluated. The procedure for the development of the enterprise's distribution system was proposed based on the regional logistics potential. Conclusions. In the modern conditions, it is important for regions to form additional competitive advantages. Today it becomes clear that regional logistics potential can be one of such advantages. A sufficient level of regional logistics potential allows not only developing thecompetitive advantage region's competitive status in the future, but also helps enterprises to develop distribution systems that fully meet the requirements of the region.
