Learn more about warehousing

-- Modern Materials Handling, 7/3/2001

Find out more about WERC's private warehouse study, crossdocking, slotting, and third-party logistics, topics mentioned in our June 2001 Special Report.

Who builds private warehouses, and why?
What types of companies go private with their warehouses and distribution centers rather than use the services of a third-party logistics (3PL) provider?

Crossdocking saves firm $500,00 a year
Crossdocking can cut labor and inventory costs while accelerating flows in the supply chain.

Will slotting work for you?
Properly "slotting," or profiling, all the items to be stored/staged in a warehouse can be a real productivity booster. 

To 3PL or not to 3PL?
That is the question as many consider partnering with third-party logistics providers to manage their warehousing and distribution operations.
