English term or phrase: cross-docking
Cross-Docking — Special consolidation warehouses are used when shipments from various sources are pulled together and combined into larger shipments with a common destination. This improves the efficiency of the entire system. Cross-docking is an approach used in these consolidation warehouses, where rather than making larger shipments, large shipments are broken down into small shipments for local delivery in an area.
