The problem

Home space too small for e-commerce inventory; needed affordable shipping infrastructure before launching.

The solution

Scalable warehouse space with loading docks, daily pickups, and easy expansion options.

The results

Expanded to a double-sized unit; shipping 2 to 3 times daily without vehicle logistics; business scaled successfully.

Meet Olivia & Co

The business behind the growth.

Toron Crawford and his wife made a decision before their first Amazon inventory even arrived: home wasn't going to work. They brought in three sample boxes, looked around their house, and immediately said no. One year later, they've expanded into a double-sized unit at WareSpace while competitors are still playing Tetris with inventory in their dining rooms.

Before WareSpace

the pre-launch problem

Toron's Amazon business existed only in planning stages when he and his wife realized home operations wouldn't work. They needed affordable pricing for a startup, room to scale, and shipping that wouldn't require constant vehicle trips, and they needed it before buying inventory.

His wife found WareSpace during research, a co-warehousing concept they'd never heard of. After a tour, everything aligned: the right size, affordable pricing, and loading dock access.

“We knew we couldn't do it in our home. It was just too much, too small. So we said, we need to find a place that's not expensive but has everything we need.”

Making the Switch

starting right

WareSpace provided the clean, quiet environment they needed with the dock access Toron prioritized, plus carts, dollies, and pallet jacks on-site.

A 400-square-foot starting unit gave them exactly what they needed to launch operations properly from day one.

Where They Are Now

doubled and growing

When the neighboring unit became available, manager Crystal removed the dividing wall and offered them the expansion. The process was extremely easy, and they doubled their space while continuing to grow.

Toron now ships 2 to 3 times daily without loading vehicles or driving to carriers, with semi-trucks pulling directly into the dock for receiving.

“It saves so much time because I don't have to physically take it to the location myself. Get it loaded up into a vehicle, drive it to a shipping location. It's right here.”
