OPERATIONS
In today’s fast-paced, consumer driven economy, a solid warehousing and distribution strategy is an important part of any business. A good warehousing service should be efficient and productive but also optimize cost to serve and improve profitability. There are a few options when it comes to warehousing solutions with many advantages or disadvantages depending on the size, goals, and budget of your company.
Public Warehousing
Public warehousing is our short or long term warehousing solution for small to mid-sized businesses. Storage is on a month-to-month basis so it is also ideal for businesses whose needs may fluctuate seasonally but typically includes few to no value-added services.
Shared (Multi-Client) Warehousing
Shared warehousing (or multi-client warehousing) is a good option for small to mid-sized businesses or businesses that are expanding into new markets. Since the costs of space, technology, and added services are shared among tenants, it provides you with the ability to manage your growth and the flexibility to handle periodic fluctuations by increasing or decreasing storage requirements as needed.
Dedicated Warehousing
Dedicated warehousing (or contract warehousing) is a common choice for mid to large-sized businesses. These typically larger-scale facilities are dedicated to the support of a single business and include value added services, technology, and the full storage space. Our customized solutions can help you improve the efficiency and smoothness of your warehousing and distribution operations.
Cross Docking
Our cross docking solutions allow you to expedite shipments to your customers by minimizing handling and storage needs. This strategy takes the freight from an inbound truck and immediately sends it to an outbound truck. Cross docking is a great solution if you are looking to increase your speed to market and reduce costs.
