SQUARE ROOT LAW
The Square Root Law states that:
“The total safety stock inventories in the future
number of facilities can be approximated by
multiplying the total amount of inventory at
existing facilities by the square root of the
number of future facilities divided by number
of existing facilities”.

30. 30
Example
N1 = Number of existing facilities
N2 = Number of future facilities
X1 = Total inventory in existing facility
X2 = Total inventory in future facility
A company presently distributing 40,000 units of product to its customer
from eight facility location throughout India is located at A, B, C, D, E, F, G
and H. The company is evaluating an opportunity to consolidate its
operation into two facilities. Square Root Law we will find the total amount
of inventory in the two future facility.
Where
Here,
X1 = 40,000
N1 = 8
N2 = 2

3 main agencies in India.
• There are three agencies in the public sector which are engaged in building
large scale storage/warehousing capacity namely, Food Corporation of
India(FCI) Central warehousing Corporation (CWC) and 17 State
Warehousing Corporation (SWCs). Over a period of time, sizeable scientific
storage/warehousing capacity has been developed by these public sector
agencies and they are implementing plans to increase it further. While the
