Abstract
This proposed research investigates how warehouse layout relates to order fulfilment accuracy in Tanzanian distribution firms. It examines storage zoning, aisle accessibility, product identification, and the positioning of frequently requested items. Warehouse observations and order records will be used to compare picking errors and processing times across layout arrangements. Interviews with warehouse personnel will clarify operational challenges. The research aims to recommend practical layout improvements that support accurate and timely order preparation.
