What is inbound freight management?
Inbound freight management refers to the strategic coordination of incoming goods and materials from suppliers to a company’s warehouse or production facility. This aspect of logistics focuses on optimizing the receipt, handling, and storage of materials necessary for production processes. It differs from a broader freight management program, which encompasses both inbound and outbound logistics, managing the flow of goods both to and from a company.
