Whether you run a wholesaling or manufacturing business, you need effective supply chain management. Central to this objective is finished product and parts inventory storage, which can be difficult to maintain in a full office. In that case, your business would benefit from off-site warehouse storage in the following ways.

3 Business Advantages of Off-Site Warehouse Storage

1. Cost Savings

Real estate on Oahu can be egregiously expensive, and the cost to buy or rent warehouse space is often cost-prohibitive. Off-site storage lets you bypass the need for additional business premises as well as the need to hire staff and buy equipment to manage it. Moreover, you can take advantage of the bulk shipping services a supply chain management company offers.

2. Less Hassle

Using an off-site warehouse storage facility saves you the hassle of managing the details yourself. You have less to juggle when you let experts handle storage, fulfillment, and shipping, which gives you more time to focus on the core of your business.

3. Inventory Control

Even after you hand off warehousing duties to an off-site facility, you’ll still have control over your inventory. You can track the ebb and flow of what you have in stock to ensure there is enough on hand to quickly address customer demands while minimizing the overall cost of storage. Plus, your fulfillment service can handle order influx—for instance, during a holiday rush or busy season—taking that burden off your shoulders.
