In today’s fast-paced global market, a logistics solution that spans from origin to destination is no longer optional—it’s essential. At BAK Logistics, our end-to-end logistics model ensures seamless connectivity throughout your supply chain, from initial handling at our Zimbabwe Inland Port to final-mile delivery and after-sales support.
What is End-to-End Logistics?
End-to-end logistics—also known as integrated or door-to-door logistics—encompasses every stage of cargo movement: procurement, transportation, warehousing, inventory management, and last-mile delivery (blog.beltmannlogistics.com, sennder.com). By integrating these functions under one coordinated system, companies eliminate inefficiencies, increase transparency, and improve responsiveness (inboundlogistics.com).
