Logistics is a broad term that refers to the planning, implementation, and management of the flow of goods and services. Logistics in manufacturing encompasses more than just product shipment. It entails a number of interrelated activities, including as obtaining raw materials, working with suppliers, maintaining inventory, and ensuring that products are delivered to the correct location at the correct time.

 

Manufacturing transportation involves transporting raw materials to the manufacturing site and delivering final products to distributors, merchants, or customers. It is about picking the optimum modes of transportation, whether by truck, rail, air, or sea, and maximizing routes for cost and speed.
