Prioritize transit times to core customers, warehousing costs versus service level, inventory visibility (WMS capabilities), order throughput and peak capacity, and value-added services like kitting or cold storage. Also assess carrier integrations, SLA commitments, and local labor reliability to ensure scalable, predictable fulfillment performance.

Being based in Soroti reduces last-mile kilometers to northeastern districts and nearby agricultural sources, lowering fuel and driver time. Savings in property and labor lower fixed warehousing costs, while proximity to main roads shortens transit times—together improving delivered cost and customer lead times for regional shipments.

Verify real-time WMS with SKU-level inventory visibility, API or EDI integrations for order routing, barcode scanning and cycle-count procedures, returns processing flows, and reporting dashboards. Confirm SLA terms for order accuracy, pick-and-pack speed, and damage metrics to align operational KPIs with your omnichannel requirements.
