Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to outline the idea of using former military airfield in Biała Podlaska to create a modern logistics centre. Firstly it presents theoretical ideas behind the logistics centres. Further on it describes the characteristics of the existing infrastructural conditions around the former military airfield in Biała Podlaska. Towards the end it identifies the reasons for locating a modern Logistical Centre for the transport of air cargo at the airfield of Biała Podlaska, in Southern Podlasie within the II PanEuropean Transport Corridor belt. This argument is supported by: appropriate technical infrastructure, valuable space for investment, the lack of this type of logistical organization in this part of Podlasie, qualified staff and beneficial direction of transport operations. This project is supported by the local authorities.
