<p>In western TV programs, the show ends with a closing logo, usually one or two closing logos.  In anime, they end the show with a preview and no closing logos.  Why don't anime have closing logos at the end of a show?</p>

They usually show the production companies' logos during the opening credits, rather than at the end of the closing credits. *Why* they do it this way round, I don't know.

I just noticed this when I remembered watching full episodes of anime that don't have closing logos at the end, anime rarely has opening logos before the opening credits.

Do you have examples of these "closing logos"?  Honestly it's been a solid half-decade since I watched anything western (mostly due to choice and not wanting to bother with an antenna/streaming package) and I'm drawing a complete blank here.

To be honest, I'm also not sure about "closing logos". Did you mean the title logo, or other logos like production studio, sponsorships, or anything else?

They likely mean these end title cards for the particular production companies involved, that appear after the credits of shows https://youtu.be/BC-eFU6OgxA
