Would it be a fair judgement to suggest that not everyone is down with all the jargon that sometimes comes along with?pallet racking?
Working with in the industry in an extremely busy office it sometimes bamboozles me, I seem just about to crack one phrase when a new one comes along.

So, with this in mind as well as to help keep myself in the loop I have noted below just a few terms that may help….. Both of us…..
