The Study Of The Reverse Logistics Network About The Reusable Packages

Reverse logistics is: The process of planning, implementing, and controlling theefficient, cost effective flow of raw materials, in-process inventory, finished goodsand related information from the point Of consumption to the point of origin for thepurpose of recapturing value or proper disposal. Therefore reverse logistics includesnot only processing used products and processing returned merchandise due todamage, seasonal inventory, restock, recalls, and excess inventory but also reusablecontainers and returned packages.The study of reverse logistics dates from 1990's and is still developing. Therelevant literature and fruit are all achieved by the European and the US's scholars.The study of network about reverse logistics is more later. In our country, reverselogistics network of enterprise is quite underdeveloped. From the enterprise's angle, agood reverse logistics network not only can help to accumulate ample information formaking decisions, but also is a critical marketing strategy to meet customers' needand to cultivate their loyalty. From the macrocosmic view, good reverse logisticsnetwork can effectively make use of resource and energy, and take healthy balancebetween economy and environment.Firstly the thesis discusses the definition of reverse logistics, the classification ofreverse logistics, the driving forces, the product recovery options and processes andso forth to present an overview and introduction to reverse logistics. On the basis ofit, we then put stress on how to organize the reverse logistics network, discuss therelation between the government,enterprise and people to decide whether theenterprise should set up the reverse logistics network or not. If the enterprise decideto set up the reverse logistics network, it should do it itself or let the third logisticscompany do it? The thesis also put forward a decision-making method of reverselogistics modes to help the enterprise how to do.it. Lastly put forward a reusablecontainers reverse logistics network——NanChang beer company how to recycle theempty wine bottle.Based on theory about reverse logistics network accepted by Chinese and foreign scholars, this paper tries to give the detailed analysis on how to organize thereverse logistics network at the same time also base on the operational research andeconomic theory. As to reverse logistics, there is no much theoretical and systematicresearch in China. So this thesis is hoped to be useful to the practical operation andmanagement for Chinese enterprises.
