"Point of Origin" is the term used in logistics to refer to the initial location where goods or materials originate or start their journey within a supply chain. It represents the starting point of the logistics process, where items are sourced, produced, or obtained before being transported to other locations or points of use. The point of origin plays a crucial role in supply chain management as it affects transportation planning, inventory management, and overall logistics efficiency. It is important to accurately determine and manage the point of origin to ensure smooth and timely movement of goods throughout the supply chain.
