Warehousing and distribution are integral components of the supply chain process. Warehousing
involves the storage of goods, materials, and products in a designated facility, often equipped
with specialized infrastructure and systems for inventory management.
Distribution, on the other hand, focuses on the movement of goods from the point of production to
the end consumer. This process involves activities such as order fulfillment, transportation, and
delivery logistics.
Effective warehousing and distribution strategies are essential for ensuring timely delivery,
minimizing costs, optimizing inventory levels, and meeting customer demands. These functions play a
crucial role in facilitating smooth operations and enhancing overall supply chain
efficiency.
