What is global logistics?

Global logistics is the planning, execution, and management of obtaining, storing, and moving products internationally. This might involve the transportation of goods by truck, train, ocean, or air. It also includes the preparation and storage of goods in warehouses around the world.

Do you need global logistics?

If your business has offshore manufacturing relationships, it could require international logistics management. Companies that work with products from overseas often need global logistics shipping services to help with transporting goods back to their home countries to domestic warehouses for sale and distribution
