The case study states that “historically, a landlord

would rent out a warehouse and leave the internal design and kitting out to the

tenant. Logistics providers are increasingly looking to allocate their capital

differently, rather than tying up large up-front amounts of working capital

into racking, shelving and design.” However, post-pandemic, the loadshedding in

South Africa caused big losses for food manufacturers, for example chicken

producers, who struggled to maintain their cold chain. Due to the high cost of

remodelling a warehouse to maintain the cold chain amidst loadshedding some

food producers consider outsourcing their warehousing function to other

warehouses with refrigeration facilities included.

Which one of the following

options would favour the outsourcing of the warehousing function at food

producers to have sufficient and continuous refrigeration facilities during

loadshedding?

When the organisation can increase their production

capacity by adding energy-efficient additional refrigeration facilities to their

own facilities

When it costs the food producer more to add solar

panels to their existing facilities to keep the items refrigerated during

loadshedding

When there is additional refrigeration capacity

available at the producer’s own decentralised facilities

When the organisation’s requirements for storing

products are very stringent and leased refrigeration facilities cannot keep the

food items consistently between 2

°C and 8 °C
