Logistics and transport increasingly influence international trade. The Logistics Performance Index (LPI) compares customs procedures, logistics costs, and overland and maritime transport infrastructure between countries. This article uses a gravity model to analyze how these components affect trade in emerging economies. The study also compares 2007 and 2012 LPI data from developing countries in five regions (Africa, South America, the Far East, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe) to find logistics improvements. The results show that improving any LPI component can boost trade flows.
