Supply Chain Day - an initiative of the Bundesvereinigung Logistik (BVL)

Selected events on April 19th, 2012

That was Supply Chain Day 2012!

Logistics and Supply Chain Management connect. On April 19, 2012, companies from the industrial, trading and logistics services sectors took interested visitors behind the scenes free of charge so that they could gain an insight into the wide variety of logistics and supply chain management activities performed every day. Institutes opened their doors and showcased their logistics and supply chain management projects. And educational and training centres presented their seminars and courses in the field of logistics and supply chain management. How does it work? >>

To the programme >>

Logistics and supply chain management pave the way for globalisation. It is a growth market turning over around 900 billion euros throughout Europe. The Supply Chain Day is designed to raise awareness levels for logistics and supply chain management in the public sphere and to motivate above all young people to take an interest in a career in this field.

On Supply Chain Day 2012, around 34,000 people took the opportunity to experience the meaning of logistics at 401 events. You can view photos in the retrospective >>

Logistics is …

…when flowers imported from other countries only begin to bloom when they're in the shop - despite the long transport distances.

…when a car buyer puts together exactly the features he or she wants in a new car - all the way through to the colour of the iPod – and when the car is delivered with these exact features and at the exact time promised when the customer placed the order.

…when a retail chain is able to offer a totally new product range every week in many thousand outlets.

…when a wallpaper producer with a single production plant and a single warehouse is able to market his products worldwide.
