Facilities, Terminals, and Equipment


Explanation:
Vorrei un po' più contesto, ma questa potrebbe essere una possibilità, soprattutto se si tratta di aprire un nuovo punto vendite. Avranno bisogno di strutture, attrezzature e altro, allora vogliono controllare quello che hanno già a disposizione, quello che manca, ecc... E' solo un'idea. Potrei anche sbagliarmi!
