Overview

Warehousing is a requirement for most businesses that manufacture, import, export or transport goods. The customer journey doesn't end when an order is placed. A warehouse gives you better control over your inventory and ensures that customers will receive their products on time, which ultimately leads to higher profits.

This module is designed to provide participants with a foundational understanding of logistics operations management, specifically focusing on warehousing and distribution. The course is relevant to all levels of individuals, as an introductory training to logistics and distribution operations management.
