TRANSFORMATION OF MARKET LOGISTICS IN THEORETICAL REPRESENTATION AND PRACTICAL APPLICATION
The article presents an analysis of the essence of logistics as an object of scientific research and as an organizational mechanism aimed at streamlining the functioning of commodity markets. It has been determined that such an organizational essence of logistics affects the efficiency of commodity movement along the logistics chain of the market, and, on the other hand, the efficiency of the activities of the logistics entities themselves. It is shown that the process of commodity circulation in the market is based on a commodity exchange operation. Tying the theory of logistics to the theory of commodity markets, the authors consider it expedient and reasonable to introduce the concept of "market logistics" or "market logistics" into scientific and practical circulation. On this basis, an analysis of the difference in goals, functions and mechanisms of these scientific categories is presented.
