Descriptif

This course focuses on the strategic and tactical issues of distribution management and logistics. The emphasis is placed on: 1) How to successfully design and manage different distribution channels (B2B, B2C, B2G, C2B, C2G) and the integrated distribution networks (horizontal, vertical, corporate, franchising etc.). 2) How to integrate core logistic functions such as customer service, transportation, inventory, order processing, warehousing/stock-keeping facilities and materials management. 3) What are the traditional store and the emerging non-store distribution formats in today's business? 4) What is merchanding and how retailers can use it to improve the customer experience in the store and increase sales. 5) How to chose the right store & warehouse locations. The course follows the simple management structure of Analyzing, Planning, Execution, and Control so, in the end, the students will have to develop a basic one-year distribution plan for a company of their choice.
