Abstract

In order to comply with the development requirements of green concept in the new century and the development trend of modern logistics, combining green concept and logistics to build green logistics system is the driving force for the healthy and sustainable development of logistics industry. This paper uses the super-efficiency EBM model based on non-expected output, the Global Malmquist-Luenberger index and the convergence model to calculate and analyze the GTFP of China's logistics industry from 2005 to 2021 from the static and dynamic perspectives. The regional difference and dynamic evolution trend of GTFP of logistics industry in northeast, East, central and western regions were deeply analyzed, in order to provide beneficial guidance for the healthy development of green logistics industry.
