Etymology

The term 'hipping' is derived from the word 'hip'. It is believed to have originated in the mid-20th century, primarily in the context of logistics. The roots of the term can be traced back to the old English word 'hip', which means to support or help. In shipping logistics, the concept of hipping evolved as businesses began to recognize the importance of managing the transportation of goods efficiently. The process was essential as globalization increased trade and the movement of goods. Over the years, hipping has adapted to include modern technology, which digitizes many aspects of the process. Now, relationships between manufacturers, suppliers, and logistics providers are crucial, making hipping an important factor in supply chain success.
