What Makes a Good Warehouse for Logistics and E-Commerce: Key Features and Benefits
Discover the essential features of a good warehouse for logistics and e-commerce. Learn about the Digital Free Trade Zone’s impact and why Built-To-Suit warehouses are trending in Malaysia.
Industrial warehouses might seem big, grey, and boring compared to beautiful residential and commercial properties designed for fun, relaxation, and convenience. So, what makes industrial properties good?
Importance of Warehouses in Malaysia
Industrial properties play a huge role in Malaysia’s growing nation. The Digital Free Trade Zone (DFTZ), a pioneering initiative, forces industrial warehouses to up their game. The country aims to become a catalyst, encouraging interest in our industrial properties.
Malaysia’s Digital Free Trade Zone
The Digital Free Trade Zone facilitates seamless, quick cross-border trade, establishing Malaysia as a regional e-commerce and e-fulfillment hub. It drives export from Malaysian SMEs via e-commerce. This e-fulfillment hub assists SMEs and businesses to export goods easier, connecting them with services like financing and last-mile delivery, all with the help of leading fulfillment service providers and Satellite Services Hub.
The DFTZ’s non-physical platform comprises an e-Services Platform, a virtual zone managing cargo clearance and other processes. This platform also connects users online with government and business services. Even Alibaba Group founder Jack Ma has acquired a free-trade zone in KLIA Aeropolis, expected to handle up to US$65 billion worth of goods and create 60,000 jobs by 2025.
The Role of Warehouses in Digitalization
The digitalization of business operations is growing fast, needing the support of physical warehouses. What sets good warehouses apart?
Innovative Industrial Property Development
Constructors often build similar warehouses without differentiation for profit, leading to speculative sales and hiking property prices. Developers must think out of the box to improve warehouse designs.
Key Features of Modern Warehouses
People seek multi-functional lots with seamless access to major courier companies, logistics, good security, and road accessibility. The convenience of ample parking spaces and nearby amenities is also essential. Built-To-Suit (BTS) warehouses are trending in Klang Valley, meeting specific company requirements as different companies have varied industrial needs.
High-speed internet connection, proximity to talent supply, and smart warehouses with automated processes are becoming necessities. Without proper features, attracting potential buyers and investors is challenging. It’s important to get space around their central hub, creating small settlements for online distribution.
The Competitive Edge of Warehouses
Competition is fierce in online businesses. Beyond delivering high-quality products, speed of delivery is crucial. This determines if customers choose their store.
