logistics program in a developing country must deliver the right products, in the right amount, in the right condition to the right place, and at the right cost for the
consumer (Davis, 2003). This particular report actually focuses on how a well-designed supply chain can actually benefit health and family planning programs. This would make sense: when goods are delivered

their countries. UNESCAP also agrees with the assessment that transporting products and services is the way to help bring competitive access to
a global market (UNESCAP, 2002). UNESCAP also points out that many developing countries need to upgrade their institutional capacity, as well as introduce specific skills to supply chain management in
