# Create a Warehouse

**Warehouse** is a facility for storing goods. It is usually a large building in industrial parks on the outskirts of cities and towns, however warehouses can differ in size and locations according to the nature of the business.

Principal warehouse activities include receipt of product, storage, shipment, order picking, and sometimes production.
