Abstract

Third party logistics service providers 3PLs have an important role in logistics triad, and supply chain collaboration. However, there is a lack in marketing literature about their consideration as one of the natural parties of the supply chain. Indeed, related with their firm sizes, firm tenures and their service offerings in recent years, they have become to act as the orchestrators of the supply chain This study aims to prove the orchestrator role of 3PLs in Turkey by stating their standardization, visibility and neutral arbitration roles between suppliers and producers. In-dept interviews were conducted on eight logistics professionals consisting both practitioners and academics of logistics in order to create a scale to understand the changing role of 3PLs in Turkey. The results showed that the 3PLs in Turkey have reached to an improved role as the orchestrators of the supply chain.
