Warehouses serve as essential facilities for storing raw materials, finished products, defective items, equipment, & other organizational assets until they are needed. Additionally, they function as staging areas for the packaging and distribution of products to customers, particularly in consumer-driven industries. Effective warehouse management aims to minimize storage time, reduce space requirements, and shorten delivery lead times through improved asset management practices. The research employs a hybrid strategy using linear programming (LP) and dynamic decision-making methods to increase efficiency in the warehouse. The linear programming (LP) model identifies the maximum quantity of goods that could be stored in the warehouse under the scenarios considered in the study. In addition, the research presents critical determinants affecting the use of warehouse space in full capacity. Through the execution of this methodological approach, businesses will be able to make more intelligent and strategic choices in regards to storage and logistics. The process enables enhanced resource allocation, increases operational effectiveness, and ultimately leads to higher productivity within supply chains. The model is especially valuable for businesses whose core operations involve high levels of warehousing and distribution, providing actionable insights into the optimization of space utilization and delivery performance.
