A "warehouse" is the tissue company's holdings facility? I don't know what that means.
There are stores that buy products and they get the products shipped to a "distribution center". Think Office Depot. A distribution center is solely for products the store sells in its stores (or online). Office Depot distribution centers only ship products to its retail stores.
Freight companies (think trucks) will ship the products to the actual "store", from the "distribution center".
If you, or a small business, buy a product then there are freight companies that have multiple "terminals" where they have loads of shipments transported from "terminal" to "terminal" ( Roadway, Yellow, Pjax, etc. are these types). The idea is to divide & separate the shipments from one load, and to get them sorted into a load to another "terminal" or to the final destination. There will be 2 totally different types of trucks used for either LINE HAUL or LOCAL. Local is a day shift job and the trucks make multiple deliveries. The local trucks are much smaller and 1 piece attached trucks. LINE HAUL is the 2 piece Tractor/Trailor. It will go from terminal to terminal.
(Before all of these steps is the factory itself)
