【正文】 Warehousing This chapter presents a description of a small, fictitious warehouse that distributes office supplies and some office furniture to small retail stores and individual mailorder customers. The facility was purchased from another pany, and it is larger than required for the immediate operation. The operation, currently housed in an older facility, will move in a few months. The owners foresee substantial growth in their highquality product lines, so the extra space will acmodate the growth for the next few years.
