## We’d recommend locating your warehouse in the Midwest if:

### Your customers span regions

Repositioning inventory means you can reach major Midwest and surrounding markets from a centrally positioned fulfillment hub.

### Reducing shipping zones is a priority

Lower transportation costs by positioning inventory centrally and improving ground coverage to both coasts.

### You need balanced inventory

Use a central location to distribute inventory more evenly across coastal and regional hubs
