PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION
In the text quoted in the training material it is said that regardless of whether your business is large or small at some point this will need a logistics operation, either for transport or distribution, so it is important to have the knowledge to be able to address the theme.
The means of transport to be used must be taken into account, this is determined according to the need of the business and something very important is to validate the budget that will be allocated to this activity since this depends on the level of transportation that is acquired, either transportation terrestrial, railway, air or maritime.
All transports have their advantages and disadvantages, an example of this is that if the company sells technology such as UPS, one of its best options would be land transportation, since the size and weight of these devices is large, and if A container can be used within the city as if it were moved from one city to another, this lowers the costs in terms of other means of transport.
On the other hand, if the company imports the UPS, the best means of transport is the maritime one, since this means that the space is used more, giving the possibility of bringing more merchandise, and the difference in tariffs compared to air transport is high.
If the company needs to transport small units in volume to their customers, they can do it through a company specialized in transport. They present different alternatives for sending locally and nationally and in some cases they do it at an international level, such as express courier, specialized courier, and terrestrial messaging.
