The prime function of warehouse is to prevent stocks from damaging i.e. storing of goods in an efficient manner. Second main function is to receive right goods in sell able condition and to dispatch goods using FIFO method.

Hello Team,

Generally speaking, a warehouse is a hub in a logistics network where goods are temporarily stored or rerouted to a different channel in the network.  A basic distinction can be made among supply, handling and distribution warehouses. However, mixed forms may also be used [1].

 

Supply warehouse

 

Supply warehouses are usually part of the production operation and are used to store raw materials, auxiliary supplies and other resources needed for production as well as semi-finished products and finished goods used during particular seasons [2].
