Summary/Abstract: The beginnings of the cluster‘s concept go back to neoclassical economics. These were the studies of A. Marshall, which 100 years later formulated in the general theory of M. Porter. Nowadays, the dynamic development of the logistics services market has resulted in the concentration of enterprises from the TSL sector. Logistic clusters have become a new element of the economic landscape of many countries. The purpose of the work is to present the concept of a logistics cluster, conditions of emergence, location factors and the economic consequences of their operation. It follows from the considerations that logistic clusters play an important role in improving the competitiveness of enterprises and the economy.
