What Do Distribution Centers Do? Explained

[@asilvers1163]

I just love how fast I get my items delivered. It wouldn't happen without all the people and planning from the distribution centers.

Always fascinated by the logistics behind these huge retail companies. Since we've moved to more of a "just in time" distribution system these facilities and the computer systems that keep them running are critical.

And ever more and more critical

Thank you very much for the video, Professor Wolters. I am applying for a job at a distribution center and this video really helped me get a good idea of what happens in general at these places. Thank you again for the help :)

[@ProfessorWolters]

Thank you. This is really a big overview. Not every distribution center does all of these things, but I am glad I could give you an overview.

Thank you for your content. You've helped me get through my MBA. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, and have never been in business, retail, etc. Many things I have a general understanding about, but you have helped me understand deeper so that I am able to think critically about an assignment. Thanks again.

Maybe dozens... dozens of people will see ;)

[@moizzkhan8546]

Do wholesalers use private warehouses or do they outsource it ?

[@ProfessorWolters]

They can do both

'Floor Ready' to me means those stupid Quarter Euro Display Pallets (400x600mm) that are alway's top heavy, and once you break them down from there full pallet shipping group, they alway's fall over :/

[@woltersworld]

That sucks :(
