For logistics, storage means not only safekeeping products in a physical space, but also controlling and resupplying the stock; therefore, together with transportation, it is considered the core of every supply chain.

Warehouse management impacts both customer satisfaction and the costs of the supply chain; therefore, it is a key factor for your company’s profitability and competitiveness.
