Logistics is given one of the most important roles in the enterprise, as it helps to solve a number of tasks (related to production, transportation and storage of products, finding outlets) with minimal costs [1]. Competent management of logistics processes helps to optimize the company’s activities related to production, packaging, transportation, storage and supply of products to the final consumer. Proper construction of the logistics system and its management has a positive effect on increasing the efficiency of the enterprise. Therefore, the study of the logistics system is especially relevant in today’s economy [2]. In market conditions, there is a need to increase the efficiency of logistics activities at domestic enterprises, but this requires the creation of an appropriate mechanism [3]. According to studies of the efficiency of logistics, its improvement largely depends on the creation, implementation and development of its comprehensive support: subsystems of organizational, financial and economic, scientific, personnel, legal, information and technical and economic support [4]. In modern business conditions, the need to find and apply new opportunities to increase the level of logistics activities, customer service, which in turn will increase the competitiveness of the enterprise and its products. One of the ways to solve this problem is to apply a logistical approach in the activities of domestic enterprises [5].
