Sažetak
The paper considers the concept and importance of supply logistic as element in improving storage, supply and transport of goods in big cities. There is always room for improvements in this segment of economic activities, and therefore continuous optimisation of the cargo flows from the manufacturer to the end user is important. Due to complex requirements in the cargo supply and the "spoiled" end users, modern cities represent great diffculties and a big challenge for the supply organisers. The consumers' needs in big cities have developed over the recent years in sush a way that they require supply of goods several times a day at precisely determined times (orders are recived by e-mail, and the information transfer is therefore instantaneous). In order to successfully meet the consumers'needs in advanced economic systems, advanced methods of goods supply have been developed and improved, such as "just in time", "door to door" and "desk to desk". Regular operation of these systems requires supply logistic which includes the total throughput of materials, from receiving the raw materials or reproduction material to the delivery of final products to the end users.
