English

Noun

warehouse ( plural: warehouses)

1. A place for storing large amounts of products (wares). In logistics, a place where products go to from the manufacturer before going to the retailer

Note: With e-business trends in value chain deconstruction (Jelassi & Enders, 2005), it is also quite feasible for the retailer to have his own warehouses where inventory is stored. Also, with trends toward "cross-docking" as a means of creating efficiencies in supply chain logistics, businesses may move a lot of wares, but not necessarily need warehouses to do it (Jelassi & Enders, 2005, p. 103).
