Warehousing on the West Coast of the United States can be a strategic decision for businesses that want to optimize their supply chain and reduce shipping costs. If your company is thinking about expanding west, it’s important to note the following advantages of finding a West Coast warehouse that fits your needs:

• Proximity to major ports: The West Coast is home to some of the busiest ports in the country, like Los Angeles and Long Beach. This makes it ideal for businesses that import many goods from Asia, as it reduces the distance products need to travel after they are offloaded from ships. This translates to faster delivery times and potentially lower shipping costs.

• Faster distribution to a large population: The West Coast is a populous region, with California being the most populated state in the US. Having a warehouse closer to your customers can significantly speed up delivery times. This is a significant advantage in today’s e-commerce climate, where consumers expect fast shipping.

• Multimodal transportation options: Major transportation infrastructure, including airports, railways, and highways, span the West Coast. This allows for flexibility in how goods are moved from the warehouse to their final destination, enabling businesses to choose the most efficient and cost-effective method depending on the situation.

• Avoids maritime bottlenecks to the East Coast: The situations in the Suez Canal and Panama Canal are impacting available maritime capacity going to the East Coast. Importing and warehousing goods on the West Coast may be a viable alternative to potential East Coast bottlenecks.
