This research aims to investigate the indicators of logistics support, namely the quality of trade and transport-related infrastructure, shipment tracking, ease of arranging competitively priced shipments, customs clearance efficiency, logistics services efficiency, and shipment arrival rate, and their impact on global exports (exports as a percentage of GDP) for a selected sample of 125 countries out of 184 countries included in the index. The research hypothesizes that improving logistics support indicators is positively and statistically significantly associated with global exports, contributing to increased production, national economic growth, and a greater share in international markets. The study employs both analytical and quantitative approaches. Data on logistics support indicators from the World Bank are analyzed, followed by a series of econometric tests and regression analysis. Approximately two-fifths of the country’s goods are transported by rail, the highest percentage in developed nations We find that the overall logistics support index has a significant positive correlation with trade and transport infrastructure quality, the ease of arranging competitively priced shipments, customs clearance efficiency, logistics service efficiency and quality, practical measurement shipment arrival rates. Trade and infrastructure quality index had no significant effect on exports as percentage of GDP. Governments and investors are being urged in the report to pay more attention of logistics infrastructure, rather than sole relying on government subsidies. Yueqiang also advocated information technology to enhance logistics support, which benefits export performance for countries participating in global trade.
