A warehouse is a large, spacious and secured building intended for commerce and government use.
It functions as a storage place for large quantities of goods.
Warehousing is not simply about storage though.
It also covers the administration and manual labor required in storage such as delivery, documentation, examination and certification.
There are three types of warehouses: public, owned by third party logistics (3PL) and company-owned.
The government through its arm uses public warehouses to store shipments and contrabands they confiscated temporarily.
The business sector usually resorts to company-owned or 3PL-owned warehouses to meet their storage needs.
Wholesalers, exporters, importers and manufacturers are the common clients of warehousing service providers.
Raw materials and finished goods alike are kept in warehouses.
This business operation also ensures the sufficiency of supply. As a result, the prices of the goods involved are less likely to fluctuate.
Warehousing may also cover the completion of goods before distribution.
The components and packing materials are just delivered to the building.
The assembly and packing of the goods will be done in the warehouse.
By doing so, the product cover will still look new and enticing upon delivery to distribution centers.
If you pack the goods before bringing them to the warehouse, the packaging may be damaged while on the way.
