With the rapid development of international logistics, the role of international logistics zones has become increasingly important. This study evaluated the importance of investment environment factors, namely, political, infrastructure, cost, and market factors, for firms' intention to invest in international logistics zones. A structural equation modeling (SEM) approach was employed to analyze respondents' foreign direct investment (FDI) intention. Results indicated that market, cost, and infrastructure factors have a positive effect on firms' intention to invest in international logistics zones. The influence of political factor on firms' investment intention was not supported in this study. Theoretical and practical implications of the findings for firms' foreign direct investment in international logistics zones are discussed.
