Özet
The rationale for prioritizing sustainability in our world, where climate change and unplanned population growth have increased noticeably and resources are exhausted, has affected almost every sector. The logistics sector, which is one of these sectors and undoubtedly directly affects the living resources, constitutes the subject of our study. The study deals with the logistics activities carried out by the companies on the basis of sustainability and the aim of the article is to provide a framework that will contribute to the sustainability initiative of the companies carrying out logistics activities. It provides gains to the literature by investigating the important factors that greatly affect the performance of logistics activities. Accordingly, logistics activities are detailed under the titles of environmental impact, waste management, transportation and warehouse management, resource usage, social impact, internal factors, external factors, and logistics performance factors. These titles are the main dimensions that emerged as a result of literature research and expert opinions. The most important sub-criteria that affect the sustainable logistics performance, which are handled within the scope of the main dimensions, have been determined as 44 with Pareto analysis. These determined parameters are analyzed with the formation of a comprehensive structural model and their importance levels are interpreted, and the findings are interpreted. It is compared with the DEMATEL method. The results of this study, in which sustainable logistics practices are at the forefront, form the basis for improving the sustainability performance of the logistics sector.
