Nowadays, the modern trends in integration and globalization are rapidly contributing to the active development of companies, but, in the search of success, many forget about the environment. Therefore, in order to meet the demands of the development of time and technology, modern logistics must fulfill an important task such as environmental protection. Green logistics represents the main trend in the development of modern logistics as well as an inherent condition of the development of the circular economy. As a result, there is no way to avoid sustainable logistics in the future, because it helps us move to environmentally friendly solutions that can no longer be avoided. Green logistics is the concept that connects resources and products, products and consumers. Moreover, consumers also prefer brands that reduce their impact on the environment. Similarly, organizations are also constantly constrained by the pressure to develop responsible and environmentally friendly operations, which require a commitment to the natural environment, which becomes an important variable in the activities they carry out. Therefore, the interest in developing environmentally friendly logistics which comes from companies, the state and the public is growing considerably, because traditional logistics cannot meet the requirements of modern society and as a result, has an enormous impact on the environment. Thus, green logistics is more than a point of discussion, it is a growing imperative. Throughout this paper we will mirror the key factors that can influence the development of the concept of green logistics in companies as an element of sustainable development.
