Abstract

At present, the world is changing very dynamically, which radically changes the geography of existing freight traffic. There is a process of redistribution of existing cargo flows, there is an active search for new alternative options for cargo delivery, and new logistics chains are being formed. In the rapidly changing conditions of the country's economy, the importance of road and rail transport is increasing. Road transport is the fastest reconstructing channel in the development of new transport chains. The importance of rail transport also remains very high, especially for longdistance cargo transportation. Improving the efficiency of logistics companies in the construction of new transport corridors directly depends on the choice of the company's business strategy and the development of the company as a whole. This article presents tools to assess the effectiveness of logistics companies. It offers methods for performing such analysis, allowing to conclude the required number of transport infrastructure facilities, about the choice of the type of transport necessary for the full development of a given cargo flow in the new supply chains.
