Evolution, trends and design parameters for the management of Areas of Logistic Activities in Spain

Abstract; In the last 50 years a new organization of international markets that directly affects procurement systems, production, and distribution has been developed, the supply chain. In this new globalized trade setup logistics is particularly relevant and unique, occupying preferential status in...
