Abstract

This paper measures the high-quality development level of China’s regional logistics using the comprehensive evaluation method of entropy right TOPSIS. It was found that the high-quality development level of the logistics industry in most provinces of China was effectively improved during the sample observation period. Secondly, the dynamic evolution process and correlation degree are analyzed through kernel-density estimation and the grey correlation-degree method. This study reveals that upgrading the industrial structure is closely correlated with the high-quality growth of regional logistics in China. The overall sample level has a favorable promoting influence and regional variability. Finally, the panel threshold model is constructed to analyze the influence mechanism. The improvement of the industrial structure is impacted by the high-quality growth of the logistics industry, which has the threshold effect of foreign direct investment (FDI).
