In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we're helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.

Praise and Reviews

An original look at this vital subject.

STORAGE HANDLING DISTRIBUTION

Logistics and distribution management is now recognised as a major industrial and economic function in its own right. An appreciation of the sheer scope and importance of the subject has led to a new professional approach that concentrates on the logistics function as a whole as well as on the individual sub-systems. This second edition of a popular and practical handbook recognizes this new perception and explores all the respective stages of the supply chain, from raw materials through to the final distribution of the finished product. The major topics covered are:

concepts of logistics and distribution;

planning for logistics;

procurement and inventory decisions;

warehousing and storage;

freight transport;

information and supply-chain management.

Richly illustrated throughout with diagrams and photographs, this new edition is an invaluable guide for distribution, logistics and supply-chain managers, as well as students taking logistics-related degrees and professional qualifications.
