Third party warehousing: what it is

The third party warehouse is a structure that benefits from:

• large rooms;
• specific means for handling goods;
• management software;
• transport vehicles;
• specialized personnel in every phase of logistics activities.

Not only that, third-party warehouse management can offer you a whole series of complementary activities that contribute to increasing the value of your product and services.

Third party warehouse management: how it works

The management of a third-party warehouse is different based on the type of goods and activities carried out by the company. However, we can identify some of the main activities:

• Complete warehouse management: receiving incoming goods, storing them, keeping accurate stock records and managing outgoing orders);
• Transport organization: planning of incoming and outgoing transport, selection of appropriate carriers, management of delivery times;
• Management of all documentation: preparation of delivery notes, invoices, and other documents necessary for the transport and receipt of goods;
• Inventory of all goods in the warehouse;
• Goods security: alarm systems, surveillance cameras, and dedicated security personnel to ensure that goods are safe from theft or damage.
• Goods packaging: We select the most suitable type of packaging for each product, ensuring that it is protected from damage during transport.
