The focus of this study is on logistics performance in Uzbekistan which is thought of as a key enabler of trade competitiveness and economic growth. However, Uzbekistan remains geographically privileged in the role of a transit hub of regional scale and faces the problem of coordinated development of multimodal transport systems and use of digital solutions. The research aims to address this knowledge gap employing mixed methods approach by using quantitative data from the Logistics Performance Index (LPI) and freight turnover reports, and the qualitative analysis of national strategies and policies. Freight turnover in 2023 is 12,664.45 million ton-kilometers, yet the LPI score rose to 2.6. Rail transport holds at 75%, and the road and air transport remain underdeveloped. The results underscore the importance of integrated multimodal systems, digital transformation and public private partnerships for furthering development in Uzbekistan’s logistics sector. This work has also important implications for policymakers and businesses as these findings provide actionable recommendations to reduce logistics inefficiency, enhance trade facilitation, and promote economic growth.
