By outsourcing your storage to IMD - you never need to worry about storage space again.
Having an under-occupied unit that you are paying full rates & overheads on can impact significantly on your bottom line.
With IMD you only pay for what you have in storage at any one time – it’s a variable cost, not fixed cost. So if stock holding goes down so does your storage charge!
 

Reduced Admin & Staff Time

Employing full time internal staff to manage the order fulfilment process can lead to high fixed costs for a business – or can take up too much of key sales or marketing personnel time which they are not specialized in.

Streamlining this area of your business by outsourcing to IMD will save you valuable time and money – which should be focused on core business activities such as marketing, strategic planning & product selection that grow & maximize your sales potential.
