Celebrating World Logistics Day
World Logistics Day 2023 is full of challenges and innovations. Today is a day to celebrate those who "move" the world, and the main objective of logistics is to serve as a link between the different elements that make up the supply chain so that regardless of the distance we have access to the required goods.
According to the Cambridge English Dictionary, logistics is:
"The process of organizing and planning to ensure that resources are in the right place so that business activity can occur successfully."
As we can see, proper logistics is indispensable for the success of any business.
What is logistics responsible for?
- Customs: If goods enter or leave the country, they must pass through customs. Here it is necessary to have governmental documents and permits, in addition to complying with the special sanitary requirements of the COVID-19 contingency. We must take into account that in the case of exports, the particular laws and regulations of the destination nation are also considered.
- Freight and Transportation: by air, sea and land our goods arrive safely and on time thanks to professional freight and transportation management. This is a complex process involving many resources efficiently coordinated by experts.
- Warehousing and distribution: Professional warehousing and distribution goes beyond the storage of goods in a warehouse. It also involves stock management, synchronization in the process of receiving and issuing goods, the implementation of safety and hygiene measures to ensure the preservation of goods, as well as the optimal use of storage space.
All these processes, when carried out by professionals, are supported by international organizations that ensure compliance with the agreed level of service by granting International Quality Certificates, thus guaranteeing optimum service.
