OUR TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED WAREHOUSE IN FREETOWN, SIERRA LEONE

We recently purchased a temperature-controlled storage solution in the heart of Sierra Leone. Ethically-run, managed to the highest standards and using the latest technologies, the Joshua Street warehouse offers both international and Sierra Leonean businesses a unique facility for multiple storage needs.

Unlike many other storage offerings in the country, this warehouse operates on a ‘pay as you go’ scalable costing model, giving users the opportunity to pay based on their varying usage, as opposed to up-front, fixed commitments.

Temperature-controlled

Our storage solution is insulated between 15 – 25 degrees, with full temperature mapping completed to WHO standards. Using the latest technologies, we are able to remotely monitor conditions and have a 24-hour alert system to control and adapt temperatures in real time.

 

Innovative technologies

The Joshua Street warehouse is equipped with a state-of-the-art cloud-based IT Warehouse Management System improving stock visibility for all your client’s inventory. With product details shared on receipt we can provide automated reporting solutions confirming the latest status and location of stock from receipt, put-away and dispatch.
