Warehouse is the real link between manufacturing and selling. Any major manufacturer of any product would require the facility of warehousing either direct or through the third party for effective distribution of his product throughout the country.

Similarly, for the large trading companies holding large stocks of saleable goods is an unavoidable factor. This is more so relevant in some states of India where the manufacturing activities are considerably low and they have to depend on other states to buy the goods that are required for the consumers. That way Warehouses, storing facilities are an essential part of such trading business houses.

In this context the need for Warehouses for e-commerce companies definitely surfaces in a big way. E-commerce companies just cannot exist without warehouses. It’s the backbone of their business. Whether it is Amazon, Flipkart or Snapdeal, the number of warehouses they have established, is an index of their penetration into the market.

Its also pertinent to understand the close similarity between the operational parameters of large warehouses and store departments of smaller organizations. While warehouses are very large, employing around 500-1500 people, stores and purchase department of a medium size company could be employing around 15-100 people based on their size and type of product stored. However, the way they operate is one and the same, in areas like receiving the goods, sorting the goods, quality controlling, inventory controlling, packing and issue of goods.

This is where this course opens up a plethora of openings in every state of India and abroad. People are required in every industry in manufacturing or in trading.

As a result, job opportunities exist in a similar way both in every city and even in smaller towns. That’s the beauty of this field. That you may end up getting a job next to your door step. Every product you can think of,
