Abstract

This paper studies the operating efficiency of port logistics enterprises, selects the operating indicators of 14 A-share port logistics listed companies for 2014-2018, uses the CCR and BCC two basic models in the Data Envelopment Analysis to analyze the operating efficiency, and finds the shortcomings in the operation of port logistics listed companies through three aspects: technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency. The results show that the technical efficiency of the listed companies of port logistics in China is generally not high, but it has been rising steadily, which shows that enterprises have been improving the allocation of resources and looking for the best state. From the pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency can be found that most of the enterprise technology ineffectiveness is affected by the scale efficiency ineffective, the reason is that there is no logistics park between enterprises, in the case of fierce competition, enterprises are still blindly investing in construction, need to operate reasonably according to their own conditions.
