This book meets the requirements of those who need a comprehensive survey of the role of distribution in modern business: what its objectives are, how it reaches these goals, and how it can be managed as a function. It aims to fill the gap between the many books written for the more experienced distribution manager, and the knowledge available to the student or manager who needs to have some appreciation of what is involved without needing to go into the subject in depth. The book has been designed to cover the Chartered institute of Purchasing & Supply Professional Stage option Distribution, and also be of use to members of other professional bodies in this area such as the Institute of Logistics.
