Distribution center

A distribution center is a type of warehouse where companies store and ship their products. It's like a big store, but it's just used to store and ship products, not to sell them. When a customer orders something online, the company might go to their distribution center to get the item and then ship it out to the customer. Distribution centers usually have a lot of space, so companies can store a lot of products there.
