General Warehouse

Ideal for businesses that need to store general goods such as consumer products, electronics, construction materials, etc. This type of warehouse has a standard structure, open space, loading docks, and complete basic systems. It is suitable for SMEs and B2B businesses looking for cost-effective warehouse rentals in good locations.

Highlights:

• Low cost
• Simple structure, adaptable for various uses
• Suitable for road transportation

Things to consider:

• The location should be near main routes or distribution centers.
• There should be a good security and stock management system.

Cold Storage Warehouse

Businesses dealing with fresh food, fruits, medicine, or products requiring temperature control need a cold storage warehouse that can be set to temperatures according to the product type, such as 0°C to -25°C, with a humidity control system. Choosing a location near main transportation routes will help reduce time and costs significantly.

Highlights:

• Specialized cooling and environmental control systems
• Safe from spoilage or deterioration of goods
• Supports GMP/HACCP standards

Things to consider:

• Check for backup power systems and alarm sensors.
• Calculate maintenance and energy costs.

Build-to-Suit Warehouse

A Build-to-Suit warehouse means constructing a new warehouse specifically according to the tenant's pre-defined plans and specifications, such as requiring an automated system (WMS), special machinery, or a layout that supports a production line. The property owner will develop the space according to the user's plans and needs.

Specific Highlights:

• Designed to meet actual operational needs.
• Ideal for businesses wanting to install WMS, Automated Storage & Retrieval System (ASRS), Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV), or even IoT systems.
• 100% efficient use of space with no wasted area.

Strategies to consider:

• Choose an experienced real estate developer, as it requires specialized design and construction within a limited timeframe.
• Consider a long-term lease agreement. Due to high infrastructure investment costs, project owners often require long-term contracts (e.g., 10 years or more).
• Manage stock by product type. The warehouse should be designed to support product segregation (By Zone/By Hazardous Class) for easy, safe, and compliant management.
• Plan for future logistics. The area around the warehouse should allow for expansion or conversion into a smart distribution center in the future.
• Focus on Sustainability and Green Design. The building should have energy and waste management systems that are environmentally friendly.

Distribution Center

A distribution center or DC is a warehouse focused on 'fast-moving goods' such as e-commerce products, electronics, or promotional items. This type of warehouse is often located in strategic points, near expressways or ports, to support rapid delivery.

Specific Highlights:

• Has a Warehouse Management System (WMS).
• Uses automated technology such as Conveyors and Picking Systems.
• Designed to support high turnover.

Strategies to consider:

• Focus on areas near transportation hubs or major cities.
• Supports 1–2 day delivery (Last Mile Delivery).

EEC Warehouse

Areas in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) like Chonburi, Rayong, and Chachoengsao are becoming popular due to government incentives and proximity to large industrial estates. If your business is involved in manufacturing, exporting, or needs to connect to Laem Chabang Port, a warehouse in the EEC is a cost-effective answer.
