Logistics flow and its elements

Have you ever heard about logistics flow? Logistics flow is a common term in the supply chain sector. This process can’t be separated from the supply chain, referring to a series of operational activities from the production system towards distribution to increase efficiency without reducing product quality. 

Several parties are involved before the product arrives in the hands of consumers, from foreign manufacturers, importers, distributors, domestic producers, wholesalers, and modern stores.

For a clearer picture, see the logistics flow below.

Types of Logistics Flow

There are several types of logistics flows that are applied by companies. Make sure to choose the type of flow that can provide significant benefits to your business.

Push flows 

Type of flow that is not fixated by the market demand. The company continues to carry out production activities to anticipate market needs. Production results are stored while waiting for incoming requests.

Pull flows

This type focuses on the number of demands. Production will be executed only when the demand exists. This method is applied to reduce storage fees as much as possible.

Just in time flows

A combination of push flows and pull flows. The company manages the flow of raw materials and is ready to sell products to match market demand.

Synchronized flows
