Popis: Transport, Spedition and Logistics (TSL) are considered to be one of the main services markets of the Polish economy. The relationship between the development of the national economy and the development of the TSL services market is due to the fact that TSL is a carrier of the economy. Globalization, the development of information and communication technologies, and Polish accession to the European Union are factors favoring the development of this particular market. The purpose of the paper is to verify whether a change of selected variables in analyzed market affects general changes of the national economy in Poland. The defined objective was realized through the analysis of literature and research desk. The analysis of statistical data covers the period of 2004 to 2013. The theoretical part presents the scope and requirements of the development of the TSL services market. The empirical part conducts a retrospective analysis of the evolution of the variables that were considered relevant for analysis of TSL services market and identifies its importance to the national economy in Poland. The authors chose arbitrarily defined indicators whose impact on economic development they considered important: the number of companies, the number of employees, gross profit and participation in the GDP. It was found that in the analyzed period there were dynamic changes in the TSL services market. These changes reflect the fluctuations of the Polish economy - periods of economic recovery and recession, which confirms the assumption that the TSL services market can be treated as a carrier of a country's economy.
