Physical distribution in the retail environment
Abstract
With multiples dominating the grocery sector, distribution has become a key factor in achieving both cost and value advantages in a highly competitive environment. John Harvey, speaking at the IGD Convention in Birmingham, takes the view that within three years retailers will have effective control over the grocery supply chain based on over 80% central warehousing and management by information technology.
