Abstract
Georgia is managed by logistic routes to the Caucasus countries, the only country that passes through the Black Sea and has the greatest sea potential in Europe. It is important for Georgia to have good political relations with neighbor countries, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Turkey. The traffic movement from Azerbaijan to Turkey, through the Armenia, or on the contrary, from turkey to Azerbaijan is impossible because of political conflicts, which is beneficial for Georgia to be as a logistic channel for both countries.
Approximately 10% of GDP of the country's logistical sector comes in Georgia, however, the potential is not yet exhausted and the infrastructure to be re-new is often inadequate in terms of current economic and logistical channels. Thus, the biggest problem is the monopolistic structures in logistics sector. The demand for transportation of oil and petroleum products has increased from Azerbaijan and Central Asia to Europe, and is expected goods to be grown from western China too. In recent years, rapid development has been made in the energy sector of infrastructure as well as in the ports, railways, roads and communication technologies. Georgia is becoming more and more integrated into the global world and transfer into an important trading center, as well as, becoming the European Market Transport Channel to the new East and CIS countries.
The capital of Georgia ‘’Tbilisi’’ is an important international transport destination in the South Caucasus region and is the only national logistics center. the turnover of retail trade in Tbilisi is 80% the indicator of the country's trade, while 70% of construction business volume (in the country) is just a turnover in Tbilisi. The second most important industrial and logistic area in Georgia is Rustavi, south-east of Tbilisi, where the heavy industry is the source of income: metallurgical factory, auto market and others.
In the recent period of time, The number of foreign investments is dramatically increasing in the country. Especially, the obvious growth comes in the transport and logistics sector. In 2013, foreign investments amounted to 15% of the transport and communications sector, which is approximately 137 million US dollars. However, The data indicator in 2014 has increased by 27%, which can be considered as s significant step forward. In 2009-2012, the total amount of foreign investments in the sector amounted to US $ 1352 million.
Overall, Georgia has developed the right economic policy, which tends to be one of the most liberal in the world, Such background can be very good determinant for future global tranding.
