The Ottoman Empire, spanning six centuries across Europe, Asia, and Africa, developed sophisticated logistics systems to sustain political, economic, and military power. This study examines Ottoman military and commercial logistics systems within a historical context, using narrative literature review to synthesize existing research. Military logistics were supported by range organizations, granaries, roads, bridges, and fortresses, facilitating long-distance campaigns. Commercial logistics supported international trade routes such as the Silk Road and the Spice Route, utilizing caravanserais and port cities. The study identifies Ottoman logistics as an early integrated system that resonates with modern logistics principles such as resource optimization, infrastructure integration, and sustainability. This research contributes to bridging historical logistics practices with contemporary supply chain management theories.

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu, Avrupa, Asya ve Afrika’yı kapsayan altı yüzyıllık egemenliği süresince, siyasi, ekonomik ve askerî gücünü sürdürebilmek amacıyla karmaşık lojistik sistemler geliştirmiştir. Bu çalışma, Osmanlı’nın askerî ve ticari lojistik sistemlerini tarihsel bir bağlamda incelemekte ve mevcut literatürü anlatı temelli bir derleme yöntemiyle sentezlemektedir. Askerî lojistik, menzil teşkilatları, ambarlar, yollar, köprüler ve kaleler gibi altyapılarla desteklenmiş; bu sayede uzun mesafeli seferler mümkün kılınmıştır. Ticari lojistik ise İpek Yolu ve Baharat Yolu gibi uluslararası ticaret hatlarını desteklemiş, kervansaraylar ve liman şehirlerinden faydalanılmıştır. Çalışma, Osmanlı lojistik sistemini kaynak optimizasyonu, altyapı entegrasyonu ve sürdürülebilirlik gibi modern lojistik ilkeleriyle örtüşen erken dönem entegre bir sistem olarak tanımlamaktadır. Bu araştırma, tarihsel lojistik uygulamaları ile çağdaş tedarik zinciri yönetimi teorileri arasında bir köprü kurmayı amaçlamaktadır.
