The impact of the construction of Logistic-distribution center of Sibenik on economic development

Logistics as an integral part of a small or large business system seeks new ways of rational business and the adjustment of the growing market and consumer’s demands, as well as the possibility to respond quickly to market changes. With the development and transformation of logistics as a traffic integral part of the products market to consumer market of products and logistics services, there has been increasing pressure from competing companies because of the products and services high level, their fast and flexible delivery, high quality, appropriate price, and all that has become an important and one of the key factors of competition. The main task of logistics is to enable its ultimate consumer to "the right product in the right place and at the right time", which goes from the supply of necessary raw materials to the delivery of finished product on the store shelves, where the key location is within logistics-distribution centres. Logistics and distribution centres represent a modern facility in which goods for further distribution to a customer are accepted, stored and finished. Different companies are attracted by those centres which are becoming a place of concentration of a large number of different logistics services (with an increase in the number of providers and users is increasing and its significance), also treated as elements that can provide a range of economic and other goals such as improving the economic structure of the area where they are located, improving the climate for investments in the areas where they are located, increasing the standard of local population, relief roads, improvement of environmental conditions, etc. Users of logistics distribution centres require a high-quality and complete logistic service system according to the "door to the door" principles such as speed, accuracy, reliability, safety, quality, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness, which can be maintained only through transport systems agreed on the principles of logistics, cooperation, coordination and transportation technologies. Sibenik- Knin County is one of the counties within the Republic of Croatia’s territory, located in central Dalmatia, having its seat in the city of Sibenik. This county is classified as a middle-income county in the Republic of Croatia. From a logistics standpoint, the City of Sibenik is currently not well established within its county nor within the region of Dalmatia in providing logistics services to Bosnia and Herzegovina, but with the construction, equipping and commissioning of the LDC Sibenik for non-food products, the City of Sibenik and Sibenik- Knin County in general, would get new value in terms of economy and transport, because the logistics industry as an important link brings good and multiple benefits both to the city, and its county in general. The logistics distribution centre of Sibenik will represent a place of concentration of trade, traffic and transport flows, logistics processes and costs, transhipment means and other equipment, energy flows, financial capital and cooperative relations of all those who will participate in its work and further development, which will help overall economic and transport development of the city of Šibenik and the Šibenik-Knin county.
