Warehouse Management and Physical Distribution are important flow control activities in
the supply chain network. Regardless of the efficiency with which all preceding activities have been conducted, these activities have major influence in determining the degree to which total customer service level is achieved.
In present global business environment, the quality of warehousing and distribution management can have major impact on corporate performance and profitability. The following flow chart clearly shows hierarchy of decisions to be made about the
selection of warehouses in the strategic marketing policies with an objective of achieving max customer service level.
Thus, Most of the Arabic management organisations today are constantly trying to find ways to do more with less! Warehouse and distribution center plays a key role in a supply chain that millions of people depend upon. By keeping your warehouse working efficiently, you can be assured that you are doing everything you can to maximize your returns.
It is proven that a typical warehousing improvement can deliver savings of10% -35% of your operating cost. Hence, when it comes to a successful supply chain process, warehouse efficiency is a critical key to success. From design to execution, an efficient warehouse can improve its process, performance, efficiency and overall quality.
Therefore, Arabs managers know the importance of warehouse management and its impact on corporate profitability indeed.
I believe that with continuous training and sophisticated now it has many of us modern economic concepts of inventory management method not only economically and accounting That's where the big difference between the two and it became possible cause inventory management in the profit or loss of the company
I think we cannot generalize and I do not have any statistical data about it but my perception and experience is that generally Arabs are excellent managers and do understand the importance of warehouse management impact and contribution towards corporate profitability.
Frankly ? Even that there is no clear statistics that can reply your question, but if you looked at the salaries mentioned in this web site for the same country, you can feel how much is the appreciation given to this task. Arab managers understand the importance of the warehouse management, but there is a difference between understanding and appreciation. The appreciation always goes to the following managers: Director General, Sales, Marketing, finance.
Actually, this is not a rule, which means that every company has its top management, who has its own evaluation, but I repeat, in general you can use the salaries to know how much is the appreciation given to every job.

All increased inventory adversely affect company profits and indicates a lack of tool in a company's ability to develop plans of the sales policies Strategy
in fact this is related to manager's mentality and professional experience. more over it is highly relevant to the business vision, and industry. in general Arab managers are being more and more aware about warehouse tasks that effects corporate profits. hope that they become fully aware of this issue as our Arab market is progressing constantly.
