    An organization’s success depends greatly on their logistical performance and how well their strategy utilizes the strengths within the supply chain. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the specific logistics context of a nonprofit point-based organization in order to analyze and evaluate the current logistics strategy and plausible concepts for improvement. The methodology used was a qualitative single case study, where both interviews and an observation were performed to understand the current logistical processes and future objective. The theoretical supply chain concepts were investigated as a mean to achieve this goal. An evaluation model was created to decide which concept is the most suitable for the company with a great deal of weight on barriers. The results indicated that the concept of Drop-Shipping would significantly improve the efficiency of the logistical processes and reduce the costs. The barriers connected to implementing Drop-Shipping were found to be surmountable, provided that the prerequisite of a partnership is fulfilled.
