Global supply chain management and international logistics

---

During the past 10 years, globalisation of trade has accelerated and in consequence the international environment in which we do business has changed dramatically. It is therefore not surprising that I have received numerous requests from both business executives and academics across the world to write a book on global supply chain management and international logistics and thereby fill a gap in the market. I am most happy to respond to such a request. It is the first title in this field and has been written in the same style as my other 12 titles on international business and shipping, spanning 45 years.
The book, written in a simple language, has a strategic, analytical and pragmatic focus on the best practice code, supplemented by numerous diagrams and case studies of an international nature. It has 12 chapters plus a glossary of terms and abbreviations. Overall, it embraces both industrial and consumer sectors. Moreover, it reflects the growing importance of software-computerised technology in the development of the global supply chain management and international logistics. This embraces the point of origin of the commodity – raw material/componentised products to the manufacturing/ assembly point – in bound logistics, to the ultimate consumer/retailers distribution centre – outbound logistics. The lengthy supply chain, spanning often many international boundaries, embracing numerous regulations and cultures, and several transport modes is a complex operation, embracing third-party (3PL) and fourth-party (4PL) logistic operators. Overall, it embraces managing mobile assets – goods in transit along the entire supply chain.
