Abstract
Cross-border e-commerce is a rapidly growing market segment that means high-quality logistic support for long-term growth. This paper investigates the peculiarities of present cross-border e-commerce logistics conditions, defines existing challenges, and suggests improvement ideas. In this case, the study reviews literature and case studies to examine the issues affecting cross-border logistics, including long transit times, high freight costs, and bureaucratic formalities in accessing various customs. This research is designed to help readers understand the specific forces that affect logistics configuration and suggest methods to improve the performance and quality of the logistics services being delivered to customers. Through the realization of these optimization measures, the study will aim to play a significant role in enhancing the sustainable growth of the cross-border e-commerce sector and preventing it from being out-competed in the world market. The findings of this research highlight the critical strategies and technological innovations necessary to address these challenges and demonstrate their potential to improve logistics efficiency and reduce costs significantly.
