The purpose of the study is to investigate the main factors necessary for assessing the current logistics potential of the region and planning for its further development. The increase of economic performance of the region is directly related to the formation and development of regional logistics capacity, its components and methods of assessment. The article studies the method of assessment of logistical capacity of the region. As the main method of research, qualitative and quantitative analysis of statistical data is used. This method involves the calculation of an integrated index of logistic potential in the region on the basis of geographic, socio-economic, transport, infrastructure, and institutional components.
