Warehouse Industry Experiencing Huge Growth Thanks to E-Commerce Boost

Consumers of today’s world are shifting more and more toward online shopping. Whether this shopping involves various products or groceries, it is clear that consumers are becoming more and more accustomed to having their needs met extremely quickly.

This desire for instant gratification has made major impacts on a number of industries. E-Commerce is booming, and as a result the warehousing industry is booming as well. As companies look for ways to get their products into the hands of customers as soon as possible, warehouses are in a prime position to succeed.

Industry Pressures

Of course, this incredible growth is not all good news. The warehousing industry is currently experiencing quite a bit of pressure to make more room, and to make it quickly.

Normally, we see warehouses located outside of cities in a removed location that exists near a major roadway. However, now we are beginning to see warehouses springing up in all sorts of new areas with larger populations.

Dru Ghegan of Atlanta-based Bonded Service Warehouse explains in a Trucks article that, “All the space that was soft for a long time has filled up, so the cranes are going again. They’re building warehouses as fast as they can.”
