What is storage in logistics?

Storage refers to parking goods for a limited period of time. It is one of the three main processes in logistics, along with conveying and handling. During warehousing, goods are kept in stock for a longer period, thus enabling improved utilization of operating resources.

Based on the number of storage units (SKUs), product types, unit sizes, temperature requirements, throughput needs, and economical feasibility, this criterion may dictate what types of storage work best for your storage facility. There are essentially different solutions for storage that work best within manual, semi-, or fully automated systems.
