Logistics, Geography, and Oil

Record high prices for motor fuel could change many of our assumptions about logistics management and geography. The economic value of using sources halfway around the globe will change when the cost of transport becomes more critical than the cost of labor.

Buyers will seek new sources that are closer to the market, provided that logistics savings are significant. These changes represent new opportunities as well as new threats for existing warehouse operations.
