THE 10 BEST WAREHOUSE NETWORKS 2008
Networks with the Lowest Possible "Time-to-Market"
The 10 Best Warehouse Networks have been developed based on the lowest possible transit lead-times to customers represented by the US population. For example, Bloomington, IN provides the lowest possible lead-time for one warehouse. Any other place will increase transit lead-time to the US population. Similarly putting any three warehouses in any locations other than Allentown, PA; Palmdale, CA or McKinzie, TN will cause the transit lead time to be higher than 1.29 days.

Our warehouse management consultants will compute the service your network provides, contrast that with the 10 Best, determine where your next warehouse(s) should be located and what additional service this would achieve for you. We'll also determine which warehouse(s) you may want to eliminate if you wish.
