On-demand warehousing offers companies the advantage of depositing goods in a flexible manner while giving them the upper hand in adapting rapidly and efficiently to market fluctuations, at any given time.

In contrast with traditional warehousing - which implies committing to rental and operational costs for a period of minimum two years - on-demand warehousing offers fast and cost-efficient solutions, ensuring the possibility to scale up the business without constraints or further conditioning.

Scaling Your Business

With supply chain managers everywhere, trying to face the growing challenges of the industry alongside the new and upcoming consumer requests and behaviour, the need for scalable and flexible solutions in the warehousing industry has seen a significant growth that will not stop any time soon.

Access to on-demand warehousing in regional hubs has the power to ensure important logistical nods in the supply chain, especially in those areas where goods are deposited in order to cover unforeseen demand waves. The more the market or the environment become unsafe and unstable, the need for storage spaces and logistics services becomes greater.

The first major trend - and possibly, the defining one for the entire crisis - is that of keeping supplementary stocks in larger warehouses.

Flexible Storage Contracts

In a current global context filled with multiple challenges for companies: dealing with the supply staff shortage, the sanitary crisis, that of prime goods coming from Asia and the uncertainty of matching existing stock with market demand, the need for temporary or seasonal storage space is bigger than ever. It is a necessity for all companies, one that is crucial for continuity and progress.

Contracts that enable on-demand flexible warehousing offer companies a series of benefits out of which, the most important one is that of allowing them to store goods for exactly the amount of time and surface they need, without being constrained by volume benchmarks or a specific timeline.

Cost Optimization

Companies can easily gain access to warehousing solutions with facilities included, in verified logistical spaces. This way, they can easily keep both their operational and distribution costs at a lower level. 

Growth and Sustainability

Through its proven flexibility, one the strongest benefits and accents of on-demand warehousing is on added efficiency.

By cutting waste and using common resources, companies can efficiently manage all the areas: storage spaces, operational costs, energy resources, distribution solutions, software and tech.

In other words, this type of warehousing is bound to help companies redirect gained income from these savings into further growth of their business and development areas. 

By using on-demand warehousing, we also use free space in storage facilities, staff and personnel, as well as existing equipment, which will eventually lead to a significant decrease of distances for delivery and implicitly, carbon emissions.

Efficiency of The Logistical Process

In order to better answer the market demand, the logistical process needs to first answer the needs and requests of retailers as well as final consumers, by ensuring a fast and efficient delivery system. Sometimes, we speak of same-day delivery or even a few hours of urgency one. 

On-demand, temporary warehousing will provide exactly that.

Depositing goods in regional and local hubs which give access to multi-client distribution solutions will give the desired supply chain dynamic and agile response they need.  

Innovations that have risen in the past years have also led to a groundbreaking acceleration of on demand solutions in the market, making way to collaborative resource access and to a more flexible business model than ever. A business model that is an absolute option for any business in the future. 

The future, however uncertain it may be in some areas, promises to be on the side of those with vision and of those who can prove themselves each day, through resilience, power of adapting to the new and nonetheless, agility.
