Features: After a period of development, China's logistics industry has achieved certain results and has a group of experts and scholars dedicated to logistics research and logistics talents working in enterprises. However, the understanding of logistics terminology remains subjective—，—with no standardized interpretation. To provide the logistics community with a reference tool, Chinese logistics scholars led the initiative to collaborate with logistics experts from various countries in compiling this dictionary. This is China's first practical and knowledge-based dictionary on modern logistics. The dictionary comprehensively covers professional terms in all aspects of modern logistics, serving as a specialized reference tool for interpreting logistics-related knowledge.
It includes content such as government procurement, corporate procurement, production, marketing, warehousing, inventory, corporate internal control, mobile e-commerce, intelligent transportation, computer management, operational models, customer service, international logistics, freight forwarding, customs declaration, door-to-door delivery, and social logistics, among others. Additionally, it encompasses related knowledge such as energy flow, commercial flow, information flow, capital flow, and talent flow. The dictionary also features introductions to major logistics enterprises in countries and regions such as Europe, the United States, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, along with their latest intelligence, making it highly practical.
This dictionary is suitable for logistics industry professionals working in procurement, production, transportation, warehousing, wholesale and retail, sales, management, airport operations, and other fields. It is also applicable to leaders, corporate managers, researchers in logistics and related fields, as well as students and faculty in higher education institutions for reference and study.
