Özet:

Increasing competition with globalization brought along the cost problem arising from logistics activities. In this context, logistics villages play an active role in reducing costs. Logistics villages provide significant benefits to users as areas where goods from different modes of transport are transferred, arranged and prepared for transportation, and all logistics-related activities are gathered in one region. Logistics villages have begun to be established by The Turkish State Railways (TSR-Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devlet Demiryolları) using government resources after 2006 in Turkey. The aim of this study is to assess the logistics performances of the eight logistics villages in operation by analyzing their efficiencies using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) methods. In the study, Entropy-based EDAS, MAUT and MOOSRA methods have been used. The efficiency scores of logistics villages were calculated using output-oriented DEA models. According to CCR and BCC models, İstanbul (Halkalı) and Uşak logistics villages were found to be efficient.
