[QUOTE="Holicent, post: 242491, member: 76163"] [FONT=Verdana]In the early days of trade, people used donkeys and horses to transport goods. They carried things on their backs in baskets and sacks. When people started using carts, the amount they could carry increased significantly and this was a huge step forward in the history of transportation. Transportation and logistics are often seen as a mere afterthought by businesses, but the truth is that without a good, reliable, efficient transportation system in place, businesses big and small can suffer significant financial losses. There's a reason why many international corporations have logistics departments of their own. Being able to ship products from China to the United States efficiently and at low cost is a fundamental part of the company's profit margin. A business that pays a premium for its shipping services will be forced to increase prices on its products to make ends meet and that can be the end of even a good business. What does this mean for small businesses? They may not want to bother with logistics departments, but they still need to know what these departments do and how they can benefit from having the right kinds of transportation systems in place. A reliable logistics department will do things like: - Schedule pickups and deliveries at convenient times - Arrange with local trucking companies and warehouses to minimize shipping costs - Make sure your products arrive on time and intact.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
