Distribution center
A distribution center for a set of products is a warehouse or other specialized building with refrigeration or air conditioning which are supplied by transport, such as airplane, truck, rail or ship, and then re-distributed to retailers or wholesalers.
The food distribution system of the United States is dominated by distribution centers, which have helped to cut the cost of supplying food in the United States, and make food only a small part of the cost of living there.
