Definition
物流 (wùliú) refers to logistics in a business, supply chain, or e-commerce context — the planning and movement of goods and information. It differs from 后勤 (hòuqín), which means logistics in a military or organizational support sense (e.g., troop supplies, event operations). 物流 is the everyday term for modern commercial logistics.
