Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum

Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'logistics', derived from the French 'logistique' (referring to the quartermaster's lodging and military supply operations, ultimately from Greek 'logistikos' meaning skilled in calculating), and 'management', from Italian 'maneggiare' (to handle, via Latin 'manus' hand). It evolved during the mid-20th century from military supply chain concepts into a core commercial business discipline focused on the efficient movement and storage of goods.
