Abstract

Presented paper is a part of the dissertation thesis titled as “A proposal of methodology for developing a logistics strategy for industrial companies in Slovakia. The main aim of the paper is to propose and present methodology for developing logistics strategy for industrial companies in Slovakia based on theoretical knowledge gained by studying domestic and foreign literature and analysis of the current state of the logistics strategies issues in industrial companies in Slovakia, as well as surveys conducted abroad. At the present, the logistics strategy becomes one of the most important success factor of the companies. Companies which realize the importance of logistics strategy for them will be able to succeed both at domestic and foreign markets. The reality is that there are still exist companies which think that they can survive without any strategy. These are particularly companies, which take a view that the strategy has a long-term nature and will not help them to solve the current problems. The opposite is true, companies create conditions of growth and competitiveness to the future and at the same time they perform activities which have desired effect in the short term by developing strategy.
