Prioritize SLA-backed pick/pack throughput, inventory accuracy, WMS integration (API/EDI), onboarding time, and value‑added services (kitting, returns processing). Also evaluate dock capacity, receiving windows, labor flexibility, and transport carrier connectivity to ensure consistent cut-off and delivery promises.

Tokat’s central Anatolian position reduces over-the-road miles to key domestic markets versus coastal hubs, lowering fuel and linehaul charges and compressing delivery windows. Shorter linehaul also improves carrier scheduling and reduces variability in lead times for regional B2B and last-mile deliveries.

Look for a combination of robust WMS with API/EDI connectivity, real-time inventory visibility, scalable racking and temperature-controlled zones, dedicated picking lines, and measured KPIs for accuracy and lead times. Consider asking for:

Common terms include variable storage bands by cubic meters, tiered pick/pack rates, inbound receiving charges, overtime and holiday handling fees, and minimum monthly volumes. Typical KPIs: inventory accuracy, on-time shipments, order cycle time, and chargeback thresholds tied to SLA performance.
