Human being cannot live without the
heart pumping blood all over the body. The same is to a producing firm it
cannot perform without the existence of store. Therefore, the store is regarded
as the pumping organ of a production firm as well as the bedrock of a producing
organization and other department that exist under the organization.
The word “STORE” connotes a place where
materials that are not consumed immediately are kept for future consumption or
used. While “STRATEGIES” means procedure in planning and directing of the whole
operation in the campaign or policies, hence store with material management

some raw materials for production.
It’s noted that about 45% of the company
raw materials are imported while 55% are produced locally. The sources of the
locally raw materials are not reliable. Most of the items they produce are less

them in the store because stock is done regularly in the organization.
