What is warehousing in e-commerce?

Ecommerce warehousing means the storage of physical goods safely and securely before they are sold online. It involves keeping track of products quantity, location, and how long they have been in stock.

For small businesses, eCommerce warehousing management is managed by the merchant themselves. Some bigger companies, they'll outsource to a third-party logistics (3PL) provider like Shippo, and ShipStation.
