Annotation. The study examines the problem of classifying logistics service providers. The aim of the work is to develop a classification of logistics providers covering postal and courier services. Based on the analysis of the regulatory framework and scientific papers, the terms of a freight forwarding company, a courier service and a postal operator are disclosed. The unique characteristics of the studied objects are highlighted. The proposed updated classification, which defines the subjects of the logistics market depending on the degree of control over the physical movement of cargo, is a step in adapting classification models to changes in the logistics market.
