Abstract
This paper analyzes the relationship between the development of logistics and industrial agglomeration from logistics point of view. The result shows that there is a "inverted U-type" non-linear relationship between the two things. That is to say, as the logistic industry develops, cost gradually reduces, which leads manufacturing industry to further aggregate in developed regions. However, when the logistic industry develops to a certain extent the cost reduces further which will reduce the extent of industrial agglomeration and industry will migrate from developed areas to backward areas.
