Objectives: Tobacco logistics matters greatly in the development of the tobacco industry. Logistics performance evaluation is a sub-part of tobacco enterprise management performance evaluation. The in-depth study of logistics performance evaluation can form a more comprehensive enterprise
management performance evaluation system, and provide logistics management tools such as control, diagnosis and coordination for enterprise logistics management. Methods: In this paper, a tobacco enterprise logistics performance evaluation index system is constructed from six aspects, including
transportation, warehousing, inventory management, informatization, customer service and finance. A tobacco enterprise logistics performance evaluation method based on principal component analysis is put forward. Results: Through calculation, the comprehensive evaluation value of tobacco logistics
performance of enterprises X in each year is obtained. The enterprise logistics performance is the worst in 2016. The enterprise logistics performance is the best in 2019. It indicates that the logistics level and ability of tobacco enterprises are improving year by year. Conclusion: Seen
from the example, the principal component analysis method can be used to properly evaluate the logistics performance level of tobacco enterprises, and provide objective and quantitative reference data for tobacco enterprises to improve their logistics performance level and benefits.
