PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION: THE BASICS

The document highlights the importance of logistics, since in any city there are
processes of commercialization, purchase and sale of products and for this whole
process transport is needed, and it must be ensured that the transport is adequate
for the shipment and in the least possible time, lower costs, especially having
technology in the transit time of the merchandise.

One of the most important recommendations to which the text does not refer is the
balance, time vs budget, this occurs knowing the distances, for example, currently
with the pandemic worldwide, vaccines are being mobilized which must be
transported in plane for your specific requirements and must be delivered in the
shortest possible time, if it were by boat the time could be weeks or months.

To choose the best method of transport for the products, it is necessary to know
the size, the packaging and the speed with which it must reach the final consumer,
the advantages and disadvantages of each means of transport of goods. Land
transport is the most common within countries and the most economical, in more
industrialized countries rail transport is used, it is fast, but much more expensive.

Throughout the process, you must also have the flexibility of the times in the
countries in case of customs setbacks and also of the merchandise so as not to
suffer economic losses that sometimes occur due to poorly calculated logistics and
loss of merchandise.
