Abstract
This study examines whether logistics performance affects the relationship between export upgrading and economic growth using a sample of 145 countries from 2007 to 2018. The relationship between logistics performance and export upgrading is relatively unexplored. We find that both logistics performance and export upgrading are associated with growth and complementary to growth. However, the marginal effects of export upgrading are insignificant at low levels of logistics performance. This relationship holds for our subsample of advanced economies; however, export upgrading and its interaction term with logistics performance are insignificant for our subsample of developing economies.
