Introduction
Supply chain management and logistic management are two
interconnected yet distinct aspects of business operations. Both
play crucial roles in ensuring the efficiency and smooth functioning
of a company's distribution network. Supply chain management
provides a comprehensive view of the end-to-end processes
involved in delivering products or services, while logistics
management is more narrowly focused on the physical
movement and storage of goods within that broader supply
chain. Both are essential components of modern business
operations, working together to streamline processes, reduce
costs, and enhance overall efficiency.
