The correlation analysis of the capability of city distribution and the development of socio-economic in Beijing

The demand for logistics becomes larger and larger with the rapid economic development of Beijing, and city distribution has become a necessary method of supporting the regular running and economic development and an important function of logistics system. Deeply research for the correlation of city distribution capability and socio-economic development will be of great importance for encouraging the match and integrative of these two factors. In this paper, by analyzing socio-economic development of Beijing and the present situation of city distribution development, we choose 6 indicators which reflect the level of socio-economic of Beijing and 5 indicators which reflect the level of the development of city distribution to analyze the correlation quantitatively. Then we use elasticity coefficient reflecting the relationship between the increasing speed of city distribution capability and the developing speed of socio-economic of Beijing, and then we can judge whether the city distribution adapts socio-economy. At the end, we can get the conclusion that there is a strong positive correlation between the Beijing city distribution capabilities and the socio-economic.
