For a low-volume, high-variety product line, shipping from a central distribution warehouse typically results in the highest level of customer service and the lowest total distribution costs.

A central warehouse can stock a wide variety of products, ensuring availability and quick response to customer orders. It also allows for more efficient use of transportation resources by consolidating shipments, which reduces transportation costs.References:
