Drop shipping is a type of logistic
activity in which the company does not keep products in
stock, but passes its customer orders and shipment details
to its supplier, who in return dispatches the goods to
the customer directly.
Drop Shipment are increasingly utilized as globalization
expands and the pressure on supply chain costs and lead
time increases. Drop shipping is an excellent tool for
companies to reduce their inventory, shorten their lead
time and cut in overall transportation costs. It, however,
is commercially vulnerable for companies trying to protect
information from reaching their customers or suppliers.
Furthermore the product quality is an issue at stake as
companies do not see their product before arrival to their
customers. Currently drop Shipment are poorly managed
due to the lack of control, unfamiliarity with the required
process, the time difference and network limitations.
