BUSINESS COMPETITION IN THE INTERNATIONAL
PHYSICAL DISTRIBUTION
The International Physical Distribution, known by its acronym DFI (Distribución Fisica
Internacional), is the logistic process that is developed around placing a product in the
international market complying with the terms negotiated between the seller and the buyer.
Its main objective is to reduce to the maximum the times, costs and risk that may be
generated during the journey, from the point of departure at origin to the point of delivery
at destination.
Business competitiveness ensures the survival of companies in the long-term market, in all
segments to which they want to access with products, in the local and international context.
One of the strategies to achieve this competitiveness is the successful planning of the
international physical distribution, in terms of costs and activities involved in the process,
taking into account that within the logistics chain they represent a representative item. This
planning will materialize in cost reduction, inventory optimization, improvement in
customer service levels, optimization of transportation routes and adequate selection of
means and modes of transport.
Due to the growth of international trade, both countries and companies must know in detail
all the processes required for the proper commercialization of their products. That is why
international logistics are a decisive part involved in the handling of goods. DFI, an
international physical distribution, that vary according to the type of product that will be
commercialized and its philosophy is to put the product at the required location, at the exact
time it is needed, at a reasonable cost. The use of a DFI is an indicator that helps to
differentiate one company from another competitively, since each one seeks to implement
the best solutions for the logistics of its products.
In Colombia we have an even greater challenge, many believe that because of our
geographical location we must feel privileged, but unfortunately the government do not see
or don’t want to take advantage of that privilege, the monopoly of cargo trucks makes
transporting products a titanic and expensive task, where real costs of the operation are not
taken into account, where the roads are in unfavorable conditions and the internal conflict,
causes the risks and operational costs to increase. For this reason, we consider it a
monumental task to try to become a large exporter when the conditions are not given in our
country.
