With the development of economic globalization, the competition among manufacturing enterprises grows more severe, and the enterprises are forced to enhance their management and cut their cost under such competition. To realize optimized management and reduced cost, the idea of"Lean Thinking is adopted by many large manufacturing enterprises. The idea is applied in the manufacturing procedures with good result. However, as there is little space in the manufacturing procedures, some enterprises come to pay attention to"Lean Logistics". Known as"the third profit resource"and"a Dark Land", there is a big margin of cost reduction in logistics. Sales logistics, an important component of an enterprise's logistics, not only has a big margin of cost reduction, but plays an important role in directing the daily production of an enterprise, meeting the diversified demand of customers, and improving the satisfaction of customers. Lean sales logistics is, therefore, stressed by manufacturing enterprises.On the basis of"Lean Logistics", characteristics of manufacturing sales logistics and analysis of sales logistics, this paper establishes a framework of sales logistics: lean sales logistics targets, lean logistics structure, lean sales logistics tools; realizing lean design of sales logistics network, selecting proper sales logistics strategies according to the features of an enterprise; introducing some advance logistics techniques (logistics unitization technique, logistics central supportive techniques, and information technology) and ways to adopt and select; and finally realizing lean sales logistics of an enterprise through the abovementioned methods. The last part of this paper is focused on the analysis of a tobacco group as the proof of the feasibility of enterprise logistics lean design through studying problems in the aforementioned four stages, and proposing solutions.
