Warehouse Management addresses the full spectrum of knowledge needs on the topic. -- Kelly Barner, Buyers Meeting Point
Gwynne Richards' Warehouse Management provides an essential 'one stop shop' for both practitioners and those that want to fully understand the fundamentals of how to manage a business storage facility. For a fairly technical topic, I have found the book to be easy to read, where industry terms are clearly explained and examples provided of the best practices described. This book is a must read for everyone in the supply chain and logistics industries, business students and all individuals that want to understand more about how to operate a warehouse. * Phil Wood, Order to Cash Manager, Northern Europe, Mondelez International *
There is no question that Gwynne Richards' book, Warehouse Management, contributed to my getting my latest Supply Chain role. I purchased the e-version and the links to the YouTube videos alone are worth the investment. The content is simply fantastic, especially the audit checklists, so much so that I will now purchase a hardcopy for my office. I had been out of warehousing for several years and Gwynne's book ensured that I was well prepared and more confident for my interviews. My sincere thanks to the author! * Jim Westberg - Sr. Director - Supply Chain *
