Abstract

After the increasing importance of the logistic areas in the previous decades, the 
classification of the logistic areas took a great deal of controversy in academic circles. 
The researchers presented several different proposals and classifications. The 
controversy among researchers dates back to the multiplicity of names that were 
given to them even though they provide the same services. There was also a 
difference in the size and level of service and the diversity of sites. Therefore, this 
research will present the different attempts of researchers to classify the logistic zones 
and the bases on which they relied and try to classify the logistic zones In a 
quantitative way, using the statistical program spss, based on the classification bases 
that researchers relied on, and studying this on 35 different regions in many countries 
of the world
