Maximising capacity
The emergence of e-commerce, with its demands for fast and flexible customer service, means warehouse operations must maximise space and efficiency.
European online retail sales are expected to grow at a rate of 11% a year from 2012-2017, Forecaster Research says.
Before the recent recession eCommerce was, for most companies, not an obvious driver of significant growth and certainly not a phenomenon that would require a complete reappraisal of corporate operations, not least in warehousing and logistics. Half a decade on, how different things look, mounting pressures on warehouse space, in this internet driven age, means having a highly responsive e-fulfilment operation will ultimately become critical to most commercial organisations.
