 DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS

My second home has a warehouse located 1 km from the company with an area of 4500
m2 and has 4 docks of which it uses 1 one to receive merchandise, 1 to ship
merchandise and 2 to store food. In turn it has 1000 thousand shelving positions at four
levels of height and a mezzanine located on the west side of the distribution center, with
an area corresponding to 200 m2 to store light or light weight.

The storage area contains 5 departments which are: Department A vegetables,

Department B fruits, Department C meat, Department D cereals, Department E packing
materials.

2. As far as inventories are concerned, the distribution center has a management

system that allows an optimal flow of food and materials, since the location of the
merchandise in the warehouse is done only by department, leading to 99, 50%
occupancy currently presented by the distribution center.

Finally, the Distribution Center has 150 m2 intended for the process of entry and exit of
living inside the facilities and bathrooms and some offices.
