FAQs

What is warehousing and distribution?
Warehousing involves storing goods in a designated location to optimize inventory management. Distribution is the process of delivering those goods to customers or retailers, ensuring timely and efficient supply chain logistics. Both functions are crucial for streamlining the flow of products from production to end-users in the market.
Our warehouse management system can integrate with your existing systems — we’re familiar with SAP, Oracle, Blue Yonder, Manhattan, and other leading systems. With most of our clients, we use Infor. It’s a powerful, industry-specific software for accounting and financial management, business process management, as well as supply chain management.

When you work with R&S, you’ll have a dedicated point of contact who will prioritize responsiveness and embrace the accountability for your goods and services.
