Warehouse should have easy road way access from all points. Management should be proactive in its capabilities to answer all the problems or hazardous accidents. Security for the warehouse is essential. Invest in Security managers. Operational managers who take care of the warehouse separate from the employees. Their job is, just the maintenance of the warehouse and nothing else. A Good manager should take care of all this issues.
