- Abstract
-
Purpose of the study is to look into how logistics management impacts organizational
profitability, with a primary focus on Delta Beverages. The research's main finding centred on
ineffective management of the efficient transfer of stock from multiple offices around the
country, which led to stock outs and order delays and ultimately cost the company customers' goodwill. . The purpose of the study was to determine both the positive and negative aspects of
logistics management's impact on an organization's profitability. The researcher then specified the steps Delta Beverages should take to ensure that logistics
management does not negatively impact organizational profitability using the study's findings, the literature analysis, and additional research. The 15 chosen respondents were given
questionnaires, and four managers participated in the interviews. Pie charts, graphs, and tables
were used to present the data. Recommendations were made after examining causes and
consequences of logistics management on organizational profitability. Poor communication and delayed product deliveries were the hallmarks of the logistics
management, which had a significant negative impact on the company's profitability because it
affected consumers' goodwill. In order to facilitate efficient and effective stock movement from
the point of origin to the end user in the defined time frame in which the product is required, it
was proposed that Delta Beverages develop strategic, unambiguous logistics strategies that must
be communicated to stakeholders. - Date
