The cluster theory has become one of the main concepts promoting regional competitiveness, innovation, and growth. Among the measurements, the Location Quotient has been widely adopted by researchers in measuring logistics industrial cluster. This paper tries to measure the degree of logistics industrial cluster for 21 national logistics nodes cities of China with the help of Location Quotient. The results obtained from these regions can be transferred to national logistics nodes cities planning policy attempting to encourage city logistics networks. As a result, it is generally acknowledged that these logistics industrial clusters influence regional economic development.
