Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Afrika ülkelerinin lojistik etkinliklerinin Veri Zarflama Analizi (VZA), EATWIOS ve MEREC yöntemleri ile çok kriterli olarak değerlendirilmesidir. Ülkelerin etkinliklerinin analizi için literatür incelemesine dayalı olarak dört girdi (lojistik altyapı, konteyner liman trafiği, gümrükleme sürecinin verimliliği, uluslararası gönderi maliyetleri) ve beş çıktı değişkeni (gayri safi yurtiçi hasıla (GSYH), karbondioksit (CO2) emisyonu, zamanındalık, izleme ve takip, lojistik hizmetlerin yetkinliği ve kalitesi) belirlenmiştir. Elli dört Afrika ülkesi arasından, belirlenen girdi çıktı değişkenlerinde tam veriye sahip olan 18 ülke değerlendirmeye alınmıştır. Bu bağlamda, Afrika ülkelerinin lojistik performanslarına göre sıralamaları önce kriter ağırlıkları eşit varsayılarak daha sonra da kriterler MEREC yöntemi ile ağırlıklandırılarak boşluk tabanlı VZA ve EATWIOS hibrit yöntemi kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. MEREC analizi sonucunda lojistik performansının değerlendirilmesinde en önemli girdi değişkenlerinin konteyner liman trafiği skoru ile lojistik alt yapı olanaklarının olduğu; en önemli çıktı değişkenlerinin ise GSYİH ülke payı ve ulaşım ve lojistik kaynaklı CO2 emisyonu olduğu bulgulanmıştır. Nihai analiz sonuçlarına göre performansı en yüksek ülkenin Demokratik Kongo Cumhuriyeti, en düşük ülkenin Benin olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
