Abstract
Geçmişte yaşanan pandemiler dünyayı ekonomiden sağlığa olmak üzere pek çok alanda olumsuz etkilemiş ve işletmeleri çeşitli maliyetlere katlanmak zorunda bırakmıştır. Covid-19 pandemi sürecinin lojistik sektörü ile ilişkisi üzerine birçok çalışma yapılmasına rağmen Covid-19 pandemi sürecinin lojistik işletmelerinin faaliyetleri ve maliyetleri üzerindeki etkilerini ele alan yeterli sayıda çalışmaya rastlanmamaktadır. Bu çalışma literatürdeki bulgu eksikliğini gidermek için Covid-19 pandemi sürecinin lojistik işletmelerinin faaliyetlerini ve maliyetlerini nasıl ve hangi yönde etkilediğini ortaya koymaya odaklanmaktadır. Çalışma bu bakımdan literatüre katkı sağlamaktadır. Araştırmanın amacı, Covid-19 pandemi süreci ve bu süreçte alınan önlemlerin ve kısıtlamaların lojistik işletmelerinin faaliyetleri ve maliyetleri üzerindeki etkilerini tespit etmektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, Şırnak ilinde lojistik sektöründe faaliyet gösteren işletmelerin sahip ve yöneticileri oluşturmaktadır (n=231). Çalışmadaki veriler anket yardımıyla elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen verilere basit doğrusal regresyon analizi ve çoklu regresyon analizi uygulanmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre; Covid-19 pandemisinde genel olarak alınan önlemlerin hem toplam lojistik faaliyetler hem de toplam lojistik maliyetler üzerinde pozitif etkiye sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca genel lojistik faaliyetlerin de toplam lojistik maliyetleri pozitif ve anlamlı yönde etkilediği tespit edilmiştir.

Abstract
Pandemics in the past have adversely affected the world in many areas, from economy to health, and have forced businesses to bear various costs. Although there are many studies on the relationship between the Covid-19 pandemic process and the logistics sector, there are not enough studies dealing with the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic process on the costs of logistics businesses. This study focuses on revealing how and in which direction the Covid-19 pandemic process affects the activities and costs of logistics enterprises in order to fill the gap in the literature. In this respect, the study contributes to the literature. The aim of this study is to determine the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic process and the measures and restrictions taken during this process on the activities and costs of logistics companies. The sample of the research consists of owners and managers of companies operating in the logistics sector in Şırnak (n = 231). The data in the study was obtained with the help of a survey. Simple linear regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were applied to the obtained data. According to the research findings; It has been determined that the general measures taken during the Covid-19 pandemic had a positive impact on both total logistics activities and total logistics costs. Furthermore, the overall logistics activities were found to have a positive and significant impact on total logistics costs.
