Abstract
The development of logistics systems has become one of the key factors influencing economic growth, trade competitiveness, and regional integration in the modern global economy. Uzbekistan, located at the center of Central Asia and possessing a strategic geographical position, has been implementing large-scale reforms aimed at modernizing its transport and logistics infrastructure. The purpose of this study is to analyze the current state of logistics systems and infrastructure in Uzbekistan, identify existing challenges, and evaluate future development prospects. The research is based on a qualitative analysis of transport infrastructure, logistics services, digital transformation initiatives, and international transport corridors. The findings indicate that Uzbekistan has achieved significant progress in modernizing road, railway, and air transport networks while expanding logistics centers and digital logistics platforms. However, several challenges related to infrastructure quality, border-crossing procedures, and logistics efficiency continue to affect the country’s competitiveness. The study concludes that further investments, institutional reforms, and regional cooperation are essential for transforming Uzbekistan into a major logistics hub in Central Asia.
