Abstract

The logistics systems of African countries are currently undergoing significant progressive transformations. The importance of logistics improvement, thus, lies in the fact that, by modernizing, logistics in Africa improves its functions, but at the same time contributes to the development of the transport system of the entire African continent. In African countries traditional delivery models were low efficient, and under globalisation this problems have worsened, they don’t fit for the business tasks. The main obstacles for the efficiency of transport and logisticks systems in Africa are fragmented governance, long delivery timelines, and lack of funding. Mentioned factors and state of economic development make influence on reshaping logistics and transport ecosystem across Africa. And today here several major trends can be identified: strategic expansion of private sector is growing, model of logistics recontsruction more and more looks like “Infrastructure Catch-Up”, implementation of technologies and sustainability, Africa's geopolitical importance is growing. Africa's logistics and transport sector is undergoing major transformations. Nowadays it is characterised by deepening geopolitical complexity, more push for private-sector involvement. All this together defines, how goods move across the continent. As a result in Africa new models of recontrsuction have been formed very quickly, which are more agile and collaborative.
