Abstract
This study explored logistics management and marketing performance of small and medium-sized manufacturing firms. It aimed to assess the influence of order processing, transportation, inventory and warehouse management on the marketing performance of small and medium-sized manufacturing firms. As a cross-sectional study, primary data were obtained from 216 operators and personnel of small and medium-sized manufacturing firms using a structured questionnaire. The research instrument was validated through face and content validity method, while reliability was confirmed through Cronbach’s alpha method. The hypotheses developed for the study were tested using multiple linear regression. Consequently, the study revealed that order processing management, transportation management, inventory management and warehouse management had significant positive influences on the marketing performance of small and medium-sized manufacturing firms. Therefore, the study concluded that logistics management has a significant positive influence on marketing performance in the context of small and medium-sized manufacturing firms.
