In recent years, with the rapid development of the third-party logistics industry, the demands of management personnel for warehouse shelves have become increasingly high. Simply storing goods is no longer sufficient to meet logistics requirements for sorting, power, etc. This has sparked contemplation among warehouse shelf practitioners. We should pay attention to the connection between logistics and warehousing from the following points.

We should pay attention to the connection between logistics and warehousing from the following points
Warehousing is an indispensable part of modern logistics

We can further understand the significance of warehousing in logistics systems from the perspective of supply chain. From the perspective of the supply chain, the logistics process can be seen as composed of a series of "supply" and "demand". When the rhythm of supply and demand is not consistent, that is, the two processes cannot be well connected, resulting in the production of goods that cannot be spent immediately or there may be a need but no product satisfaction. At this time, it is necessary to establish storage for goods that cannot be spent immediately, in order to store them for future needs. The book states that there is both the "activity" of things and the "cessation" of things between supply and demand. The cessation state refers to the storage of things, and the cessation of things is to effectively connect the dynamic processes of supply and demand.

Warehousing can ensure the quality of goods
Inspecting the quality of goods in the storage process can effectively prevent counterfeit goods from entering the mall, protect the rights of consumers, and to some extent, uphold the promises of manufacturers. To ensure the quality of goods through warehousing, two key steps must be taken: first, quality inspection must be carried out when the goods are stored to see if they meet the storage requirements, and unqualified goods are prohibited from being mixed into the warehouse. Second, during the storage period of the goods, efforts should be made to prevent physical and chemical changes and minimize the loss of inventory goods.

Warehousing ensures the smooth progress of social re production
The warehousing process of goods is not only a necessary guarantee for the smooth flow of goods, but also a guarantee for society to proceed in the production process.

Warehousing accelerates commodity circulation and saves circulation costs
Although the storage of goods in the warehouse is in a stopped state, which may result in additional time and financial costs, in fact, overall, it not only does not cause time loss or additional financial costs, but on the contrary, it can help accelerate circulation and save operating costs. When discussing the necessity of warehousing earlier, it was mentioned that warehousing can effectively reduce transportation and production costs, leading to a decrease in total costs.

Warehousing can prepare goods for entering the mall
Warehousing can complete the sorting, packaging, quality inspection, sorting and other procedures before the goods enter the mall, which can shorten the working time of subsequent links and accelerate the circulation speed of goods.
