In general, a warehouse should be used for distribution or storage however you may also come across a property labelled ‘distribution facility’. A distribution facility is a specific type of warehouse that specialises in distributing products rather than creating or packaging them.
A manufacturing facility should be used for creating or converting products and a flex-facility is a mixed-use type of space used for multiple businesses or a single business with a variety of uses.
