Urban logistics plays an important role in the rapid economic development in Jiangxi Province. As the rapid urbanization process is coming in Jiangxi, cultivation and elevation of urban logistics competitiveness has been one of priorities for cities in Jiangxi to improve economic development and compete within the region.

Only when cities in Jiangxi are aware of the status quo of logistics of their own and the competitive edge of others can they bring into full play their own advantages and elevate urban logistics competitiveness. With the logistics competitiveness of the eleven cities in Jiangxi as research object, the paper adopted quantitative methods and assessed, compared and analyzed urban logistics competitiveness in Jiangxi and dynamic changes in the years of2000,2005and2010in an attempt to provide theoretical basis for research on the development of urban logistics and its competitiveness.Taking logistics competitiveness of the eleven city in Jiangxi as the research object, the domestic and international relevant research literature have been made the contrast. The paper analyzes the current logistics situation and problems in Jiangxi. Using the evaluation index of logistics competitiveness(information development level, logistics supply situation, logistics demand scale, logistics development macroscopic environment), the paper employs principal component to analyze the logistics competitiveness in Jiangxi. According to the evaluation result, the paper put forward the countermeasures to improve urban logistics competitiveness in Jiangx.
