Supply chain logistics in the age of GPS vehicle tracking solutions

What is the supply chain?
The supply chain is a set of entities, resources and procedures that define the relationship between the company and the suppliers to achieve the ultimate goal of manufacturing the products and distribute them to the customers.

Generally, supply chain entities include:

• Distribution companies
• Retailers

Detailed view across the entire business
