3. The Benefits of Warehousing for Business • Basically, warehouses serve as a platform where all your goods can be easily accessed and products prepared for distribution in accordance with the received order. These activities are usually spearheaded by the warehouse personnel. This personnel are often well trained and also have years of experience in warehouse management. They also make sure that identifying, sorting, and dispatching of the goods according to the received order(s) are done in very professional manner. • Warehouses also act a place to store surplus goods especially when there is little or no demand for these goods. The warehouse enables the goods to maintain its perfect condition until when an order is received for it or whenever the market demand for it arises.

4. The Benefits of Warehousing for Business • Another amazing benefit of warehousing is that it adds value to the operation. This value lies in the fact that you will have more control of your shipping and handling, while also boosting your business profile by providing warehousing services that make products far more convenient and readily available for your customers. In addition, businesses can obtain warehousing services at a very low cost and in turn churn out great customer services. Your business can also utilize the consolidation and assembly that is inherent in warehouse operations to add great value to the logistics of your business. • Warehousing offers enormous benefit to businesses as a result of its efficiency, capacity, and in most cases its location. A perfect example of this benefits lies in the consolidation operations of the warehouse which offers an incredibly low cost for outbound deliveries of goods. Therefore with a central warehousing, instead of embarking on shipping of different products from numerous sources, you can now comfortably package and ship orders together as a complete order and save your business the expensive sum that would have been spent on shipping the goods individually.

5. Importance of Warehousing In the Development of Trade and Commerce • Storage: • Storage is the basic function of a warehouse. Products that are surplus to the immediate market demand are usually stored in the warehouse until when the demand for it by customers arises. • Price Stabilization: • Warehouses are major instruments in the pricing of commodities in the market. This is achieved via the creation of time utility. That is, a manufacturer can choose to store up products in the warehouse when the product is much in circulation and releases it when the product is limited in the market thus stabilizing the price of the product. • Risk-bearing: • With warehousing, your goods are safe from certain storage risk such as theft, deterioration, exploration, fire etc. This is because these warehouses are built in a very formidable way thus reducing to a bearable minimum the risk of theft and storage related damages to goods.

In this case, your goods under the warehouse keeper's watch act as a valid security for the loan. In addition, when seeking loans from banks, warehouse receipt is most times demanded as part of the required documents to process the loan. • Grading and Packing • At most warehouses grading and packing services are made available for customers who are in need of these services.
