What is logistics?
Logistics entails the organization, planning, control and execution of the flow of goods from the
development and purchasing, through manufacturing and distribution to the customer (end user), up to and
including the reverse flow. The aim is to meet market demand at lowest cost and best use of capital, and
building long-term relationships with customers

Logistics is considered to have originated in the military's need to supply itself with arms, ammunition, and
rations as it moved from a base to a forward position.
