The sky's the limit
Article Abstract:
Distributors point out they have certain size requirements for their warehouse buildings which must also be situated in specific locations throughout the UK. Many third party logistics companies use outside property experts to find new buildings. Distribution industry observers point out third party logistics firms are demanding larger warehouse buildings in order to be able to hold more stock. Buildings up to the height of 82 ft enable distributors to save on rental costs. Many older warehouses are unsuitable because they lack sufficient height.
