Logistical processing of information: Management of a warehouse

The warehouse is a link in the logistics chain; that is to say, it is linked to the means of communication and transport, to the ports, the airport, the railway station and to trade. It combines, for this purpose, the management of flows (material, financial, human and information flows) for its optimization. A warehouse can be a warehouse and temporary storage area (bonded warehouse), a warehouse and export area or a warehouse and transit area (free warehouse). The bonded warehouse, although locked by administrative procedures and regimes, offers economic and financial advantages to companies and individuals.
