The Nature of Global Logistics and
Channel Decisions III
The value chain provides a useful framework for
integrating various organisational activities related
to global distribution

increasingly intertwined, i.e.
sourcing material and parts for production
taking care of product shipment
selecting suitable distribution partners

In-Bound Logistics III
World factor costs that affect manufacturing
industrialised countries
factor costs are tending to equalise
industrialising countries (Singapore, other Pacific
Rim countries)
offer significant factor costs savings
offer an increasingly developed infrastructure and
political stability
Russia and other countries
lower factor costs (especially wages) are offset by limited
infrastructure development and greater political
uncertainty
