Transport and logistics activities are great importance in economic development, employment creation and increasing competitiveness. In this research, the relationship between Transport and Logistics sector and economic growth has been investigated. In light of the findings obtained, we aimed to advise the sector representatives and to raise awareness, and inform them about the risks that may be encountered and the opportunities that may arise. For this purpose, Granger (1969) and Hsiao (1979) causality analyzes have conducted using macroeconomic variables that are influenced or thought to be influenced by the sector. Significant structural breaks have been detected. According to the analysis results, the Transport and Logistics sector is not the cause of economic growth, but economic growth affects the sector. Therefore, there is a one-way relationship. In addition, there is one-way causality from oil prices and exchange rates towards the sector. This study, which examines the Borsa İstanbul Transportation (XULAS) index, contributes to the literature in terms of the variables examined, the time interval of the variables, the methodology used, and the findings obtained.
