Abstract: In the article the authors analyse the integration processes in the European Union and consequences of this processes, after the new EU Member States joined the EU in the year 2004 and 2007. The authors analyse the European market of logistics services and focus on the issue of the irregular effects that occur in the year 2004 and 2007. The authors wanted to examine if there are differences in the old EU-15 Member States and the new EU Member States in changed micro and macro environment in the European market of logistics services. The authors wanted to determine how the old EU-15 Member States and the new EU Member States adapt to the new business environment and other changes in the micro and macro environment in the European market of logistics services. The authors found that the development after the new EU Member States joined the EU in the year 2004 and 2007 in the EU-15 member states and in the new EU Member States is different. The EU has to adopt the harmonised economic policy which will solve the North-South problem and cross-state cultural consensus and find a way to operate systemically in global environment.
