Efficient warehousing ensures goods are readily available, reduces transportation delays, and supports better inventory control, ultimately helping businesses meet customer demand reliably. Key services offered in warehousing include inventory management, product sorting, packaging, labeling, and order fulfillment. Some warehouses also offer value-added services, such as assembly or kitting. Depending on the business needs, warehouses may be specialized (e.g., cold storage for perishable items) or general-purpose.
