logistics companies

Supply chain operators

Logistics companies manage the movement and storage of goods from origin to destination.

They handle transportation, warehousing, inventory, and distribution—coordinating the complex chain between manufacturers and end customers.

The term covers freight forwarders, trucking firms, and third-party logistics providers: We hired a logistics company to handle our overseas shipping.
