Your online store is working, sales are increasing… but orders aren’t arriving on time. The problem? It may be your ecommerce warehouse. A good warehouse doesn’t just store products. It’s the heart of your operations. And if it beats slowly, everything slows down.
What is an ecommerce warehouse?
An ecommerce warehouse is the space where every order from your online store is received, stored, picked, packed, and shipped. Its design, organization, and technology make the difference between a satisfied customer and a complaint.
Key functions of an ecommerce warehouse
