Cross-docking is an effective technique utilized
in distribution centers and warehouses, to speed
up the order fulfillment process. This practice
in logistics make the incoming stocks
transferring directly into the shipment without
connecting warehouse. This eliminates the need to
store products, and thereby saves the overall
time to a great extend. The incoming items are
likely to remain on the site for a maximum of 24
hours, but mostly leaving in a much shorter time.
