Flow racking is the most suitable storage system for maintaining a first in, first out (FIFO) stock rotation. In a flow racking system, pallets are loaded at the higher end of the rack and move by gravity to the lower end where they are picked. This ensures that the first pallets stored are the first to be retrieved, aligning perfectly with the FIFO principle.
C is the answer. "Pallet racking" isn't a term for a specific storage system - all the other answers fit that definition.
C. Flow racking
A flow-rack system uses gravity to assist put-away and retrieval. The driver places the first pallet onto a downward-tilting rack. The unit slides on rollers as far as it can. Then the next unit is inserted into the rack. The pallets are retrieved from the other side, so the system is FIFO.
agreed
C fits as the best answer
