Additional Benefits of Linde’s Distribution Centers

  1. Multiple inventories: By spreading inventory out over multiple distribution centers, as Linde has, our distribution centers support one another on fast moving items to prevent backorders.
  2. Minimized risk: Sometimes there are unforeseen circumstances or bad weather occurrences that can prevent shipping carriers from making it to the fulfillment center or cause delays while in transit. With multiple distribution centers across multiple geographic areas, you will have backup inventory available that can help prevent delays or lost stock when an emergency arises.
  3. Faster delivery: Instead of waiting for products to arrive from one central distribution center, using multiple locations allows us to store your product close to your business, which can significantly reduce delivery times.
