Green finance (GF), as a critical policy tool for supporting green development, plays pivotal role in directing capital flows toward low-carbon and environmentally friendly industries. This provides essential support the transformation (GT) of logistics industry (LI). However, limited research exists on regional GT LI from perspective GF integration. To address this gap, study develops an evaluation index system integration LI, well separate assessing LI. Using panel data 30 Chinese provinces spanning 2010 to 2022, employs Super-SBM-Undesirable model coupling coordination degree analysis. Additionally, threshold effect is applied examine nonlinear relationship between GF-LI alongside heterogeneity analysis explore disparities. The findings reveal three key insights: (1) In recent years, China has significantly improved, advancing mildly imbalanced stage moderate high levels coordination. significant disparities level persist. (2) positive characterized by S-shaped relationship. (3) impact exhibits notable heterogeneity. Compared with existing results, expands application scope GF, focusing fundamental service industry, further verifies universality promoting devel-opment different addition, current mainly focuses technological innovation, environmental regulation, supply chain optimization, while there less attention paid how can promote through industrial
