摘要：Despite prolonged downturn in many European countries,including Poland,the service sector has been experiencing constant development. This applies to logistics in particular,which thanks to operations of transport,freight forwarding and storage is dubbed the barometer of economic growth. The logistics service sector i.e. providing broadly defined logistics services is currently expanding at a vast rate of knots,both in terms of GDP contribution as well as the number of operating companies – 146 thousands and industry employment – 622 thousands (Polish Transportation Report…,2011,p. 24). Logistics companies found themselves in this favourable position due to high flexibility and venturing forth with risky business undertakings.
