Abstract

Topicality. The relevance of this scientific problem lies in the study of the evolution of the development of logistics as an economic category in order to determine the trends of its development, factors affecting this development, historical changes, as a basis for predicting and forecasting the further development of this direction of organization of market and logistics environment. Thus, known wisdom suggests that if we acknowledge the past, we cannot predict the future. That is, without this we cannot plan economic relations and influence their development. Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to determine: stages of logistics development, within which certain economic processes occurring in commodity markets are combined; defines the functions and logistics elements that make up the commodity markets; further prospects for the development of market logistics. Research results. The development of logistics is influenced by changes in the economic and practical sphere and the transformation of market relations, in particular, such transformational changes that influenced the logistics development can be characterized as follows: overproduction as a result of the development of the industrial economy; specialization under the pressure of cost savings in logistics processes; globalization as a process of development of the world economy and pressure of developed countries on others; a technological factor that has been developing at an accelerated pace in recent years and is becoming more influential). Four stages of development of logistics in historical dimension are defined (stage 1 is characterized by fragmentation of production processes, which influences the gradual transition of the economy from producer to buyer market; stage 2 extends the marketing concept, which focuses on strengthening the strategy of inventory formation; stage 3 is characterized by integration of logistics functions production and distribution entities of the market, which allows to achieve minimization of logistics costs; stage 4 characterizes the development of logistics by optimizing the time and space criteria, at this stage there are global logistics networks), which are formed on the basis of changes in market relations, as well as depending on the development of technological and technical factors characteristic of this or that stage. It is determined that the formation of these stages is influenced by the degree of development of economic market instruments, such as: marketing, integration, strategic planning, foresight forecasting. Conclusion. As a result of the study, the authors tried to predict the further development of logistics as a scientific field, taking into account the following factors: deepening conflict of interest between corporations and governments of different countries, which, under the influence of deglobalization, leads to the transformation of logistics of markets into simpler forms - supply chains with increased parameters of supply; transformation of consumer markets under the influence of the evolution of social needs, in which the individualization of public demand is beginning to dominate and the technology of individual supply through Internet networks is changing accordingly; the use of foresight forecasting as a progressive form of identifying and meeting public needs through the improvement of logistics services.

In modern conditions of economic development of the world economy the efficiency of functioning of commodity markets depends on the rational organization of their logistics
Logistics processes are essential in the country's economy, the organization of which in the markets creates the conditions for the realization of

Conclusion

As a result of the study, the authors tried to predict the further development of logistics as a scientific field, taking into account the following factors: deepening conflict of interest between corporations and governments of different countries, which, under the influence of deglobalization, leads to the transformation of logistics of markets into simpler forms - supply chains with increased parameters of supply; transformation of consumer markets under the influence of the evolution of social needs, in which the individualization of public demand is beginning to dominate and the technology of individual supply through Internet networks is changing ; the use of foresight forecasting as a progressive form of identifying and meeting public needs through the improvement of logistics services. Among the major economic and technological factors affecting the development of logistics should be identified changes in inventory strategies; back pressure on production costs; development of oligopoly markets (changes in patterns and attitudes of consumer demand); advances in computer technology [1] During this period, the concept of business logistics was formed, under the slogan "Logistics is the management of all types of activities that facilitate the movement and coordination of supply and demand for goods at a specific place and time" [2]. The globalization of the market contributes to the development of the concept of general quality management as a managerial approach, which aims at improving the quality and participation in this process of all participants in the logistics chain - maintaining quality characteristics at all stages of production and promotion of products (services) in the market This makes it possible to achieve long-term success by fully meeting the needs of consumers and the mutual benefit of each participant and society as a whole.
