Have you ever considered outsourcing your warehousing? Have you run out of space and need additional capacity? Is holding stock draining your budget each month? In 2025, outsourcing warehousing is a strategic move for you and your customers, offering numerous benefits that enhance operational efficiency and support business growth.
Dicker Data has operated in the Australian channel for over 46 years. We’ve recently opened stage two of our warehouse, which has doubled our warehouse footprint, providing IT vendors and partners with the opportunity to outsource their storage and logistics requirements.
Dicker Data’s 3PL warehouse is both vendor and source agnostic, meaning that regardless of where the stock comes from, it can be stored and deployed by the Dicker Data 3PL Team.
So, why should you outsource your IT warehousing in 2025?
Reduced Capital Expenditure: Avoid significant upfront investments in warehouse infrastructure, technology, systems, and equipment.
Lower Operating Costs: Outsourced providers often achieve economies of scale, reducing costs for storage, labour, utilities, and maintenance.
Variable Costs: Pay only for the space and services you use, making it easier to manage fluctuating inventory levels.
Seasonal Demands: Easily scale operations up or down during peak seasons or market fluctuations. Customers can scale their requirements in line with seasonality. In some cases, we doubled the storage available to partners to support their storage requirements leading into the Black Friday Sales.
Adaptability: Access additional space or specialised services (e.g. staging centre for customising IT equipment) without long-term commitments.
Market Expansion: Utilise warehouses in different regions to support growth into new markets.
Specialised Knowledge: Leverage the experience of professional third-party logistics (3PL) providers in inventory management, compliance, and optimisation.
State-of-the-Art Technology: Benefit from advanced warehouse management systems (WMS), API integration, automation, and real-time tracking without needing in-house investment or expertise.
Compliance and Risk Mitigation: Outsourced providers often ensure adherence to legal and regulatory requirements for storage and shipping.
Dicker Data Services have provided storage and logistics solutions to Vendors, Resellers, MSP's, Systems Integrators for more than a decade. The facility, systems, processes and people ensure that every engagement is handled professionally and expertly. Our customers have the confidence that their stock will be delivered on time and to the right location, when they need it there.
