If a company needs to ship products to multiple retailers, it can use cross-docking to consolidate the shipments. A huge benefit of cross-docking is it reduces costs and saves time. Cross-docking is often used when handling time-sensitive and perishable inventory and it takes place in a distribution docking terminal which usually has trucks and dock doors on two sides (inbound and outbound) with only enough storage space for goods that are being transferred. By forgoing storage and utilizing cross-docking, delivery time is reduced. This provides the goods with a longer sales window.
