One of the main components of a shipper’s supply chain is warehousing. When goods have to be imported or exported, warehousing is the step that usually comes before or after. The importance is traced back from the 17th-century trade routes of European settlers to the ancient roman empire. Fast forward to today, and countless people still use warehousing due to its benefits. Businesses from an extensive amount of different industries as well as individual shippers use warehouses for their commodities. The reason is that it adds value to their supply chain.
The primary usage of a warehouse is for the storage and distribution of a good. Without warehousing, shippers may not have the room to house cargo for an extended period and dispense it to customers. Likewise, warehousing is also ideal for storing goods for later usage or until the demand for that product is high. Using a warehousing facility may also cut transportation and supply chain costs.
