What is Storage?

Efficient storage is a critical component of a successful logistics operation. Warehouses and logistics centers act as a bridge between producers and end consumers by storing inventory for later distribution. Proper storage helps maintain a steady flow of goods to market, preventing shortages when consumer demand outpaces production capacity.

Several factors contribute to effective warehouse storage practices. Temperature and humidity controls preserve product quality over time. Organizing inventory with logical placement and labeling minimizes handling time and prevents misplaced items. Regular cycle counting improves inventory record accuracy. And utilizing vertical space with racking or mezzanines maximizes storage density.
