Empirical analysis of the impact which the shared resources have on the competitive advantages of the logistics enterprise in logistics industry clusters

Abstract

The paper proposes seven theoretical hypotheses after firstly putting forward the composition of the shared resources of the logistics industry cluster and then analyzing theoretically the impact that the shared resources have on the competitive advantages of the logistics enterprise in logistics industry clusters. To prove these hypotheses, the researchers prepare questionnaires and collect the questionnaire data from 201 enterprises of the logistics industry clusters. In this paper, the researchers analyze these data by using such soft wares as SPSS for windows (version 17.0) and AMOS7.0, etc. and make the conclusion that location resources, brand resources, specialized division of labor and cooperation resources, supporting institutions resources and order resource have positive impacts on the competitive advantages of the logistics enterprises, while material resources are only partially supported as to their impacts on the competitive advantages for logistics companies, and collective learning and knowledge sharing resources do not have obvious impacts on the competitive advantages of logistics businesses.
