That is attained through the description of inventory and logistics management and explaining concepts such as logistics and logistics processes, stocks and stockholding, purchase, purchase management and sale. The text also involves a register, a report and evaluation of stocks and on logistics network. With regard to analysis of actual state of inventory management in a company Jihočeská zelenina trade s. r. o., options for optimization of logistics processes are presented. Optimization is focused on quantity of distribution lines and their costs and on potential merging of some of these distribution lines together and also on comparison of storage costs with costs for more frequent distribution. Furthermore, the hypothesis of total costs was calculated in a situation, where the cost for transport would be more expensive, but the purchase price of inventories, on the contrary, cheaper. This is followed by a comparison with the current situation and finding out, which model is more effective for the company. All the necessary data are obtained through interviews with employees and from accounting documents.
