Goods- Raw materials, parts, components, in-processes, finished goods and operating supplies or any other items used or sold of a firm. A warehouse is a commercial building for storage of goods. Warehouses are used by manufacturers, Importers, exporters, transport businesses, customs etc. They are usually large plain buildings in industrial areas of cities and towns. They come equipped with loading docks to load and unload trucks; or sometimes are loaded directly from railways, airports or seaports. “Today warehouses are not used to store things but rather to receive, breakdown, repackage and distribute components to a manufacturing location or finished products to customers” Warehouse Location Strategies Market-positioned strategy-warehouses close to customers to maximize distribution services & improve transp. economies of scale.
