Introduction
Training course introducion / brief

Warehouses are designed to store finished goods that moved in and out on pallets. But currently, warehouse industry is evolving itself as corporate considered them unnecessary and a cost-center. Today, warehouses are promise keepers: Their job is to enable a company’s go-to-market strategy and make good on the promises made by the marketing and sales departments. Order turnaround — the time it takes to pick and pack an order so it is ready for pickup by a delivery company before the cut-off time — is measured in hours rather than days.
