If you run a business, you know how important quick and efficient transport and logistics distribution is in this fast-paced, gotta-have-it-now society. In many cases, your company’s ability to compete will depend on the efficiency of your logistics distribution.
Understanding Transport and Logistics
Transport and logistics are different but interconnected parts of the supply chain. And “parts” is a generous description—nothing moves without these two operations.
Transport involves the physical movement of products from one spot to another. Point A to point B.
Logistics is the plan, the strategy—a larger conversation about warehousing, inventory management, and order fulfillment.
This is the simple notion that a product should get where it should go, in as few steps, and, thus, as cost-effectively as possible.
The Role of Distribution in Supply Chain Management
Distribution is the process of getting products from the point of manufacture to the consumer and is thus an important step in the supply chain that makes sure a business can actually sell what it creates, and customers can buy it in a timely and hopefully convenient manner. This process helps to facilitate sales and customer satisfaction by making sure the products desired by the customer are available when and where they need them, thus requiring the best of what marketing and logistics can offer. Distribution should indeed be a routine and efficient operation that isn't noticed when it actually works like intended as otherwise, it could be a somewhat hidden and indirect cost in terms of the allocation of resources and particularly company time to get right.
