Easily accessible bins used for frequent picking.

Forward pick locations are strategically placed bins or shelves near the packing area, reserved for high-volume or frequently picked SKUs. Stock is regularly replenished here to ensure fast order fulfilment. For instance, a bestselling product may be kept in a forward pick zone for single-unit orders, while bulk inventory remains in reserve storage farther back in the warehouse.
