Abstract: Abstract When companies expand internationally under various pressures or opportunities, they find “logistics barriers” in cross-national logistics. This chapter conceptualizes the field of Cross-National Comparative Logistics (CNCL). Firstly, the areas of logistics to compare is discussed which include the concepts, thoughts and practices. Secondly, the factors causing the difference in “logistics” are discussed, which include the development level, market maturation or economic system, and culture. The operationalization of the factors is further discussed.
