Warehouse

Obvious, but you would be surprised how many businesses aim to simply lift the current operations, storage solution and operating plans from one building to the next. Consider sales growth and an increase in SKUs. Will any new product ranges be introduced? Do the new ranges have the same storage characteristics and sales profile as existing ranges? What about the cube and packaging, does the current or planned storage media support the new ranges? As sales increase will you be able to increase the inventory turnover? Simply, can you replenish the warehouse faster and use less space as a result? Greater throughput provides opportunities for more frequent deliveries, plan for them and reap the rewards.
