What is the difference between production logistics and supply chain logistics?

Production logistics covers the internal movement of materials within a manufacturing facility — raw materials from goods-in to production lines, work-in-progress between production stages, and finished goods from the end of the line to the despatch bay. Supply chain logistics covers the external movement from the despatch bay to the customer. The two connect at the loading bay: production logistics ends when finished goods are staged for collection, and external logistics — including Go Trans-arranged carrier collections — begins when the carrier vehicle arrives. Belgian manufacturers in automotive, pharmaceutical, and food processing sectors generate production logistics operations that feed directly into Go Trans's carrier collection network.
