Warehouses store commodities for later use. It can be configured to fetch a single commodity type from all connected buildings. Warehouses store commodities that would typically exist in a solid dry state.
Commodities stored in warehouses are made available to all other connected buildings that need them. For example factory buildings will fetch commodities from a warehouse to run their manufacturing lines, and brokers will sell wares and fill shipments with commodities stored in warehouses.
A warehouse cannot be set to fetch liquid and gas commodities, those are only handled by storage tanks.
Potential issues
Warehouses are fairly contentious in their functionality due to their slow commodity import rate. This can usually be seen as ~100 units per report cycle, which is vastly lower than the output of most modern manufacturing processes. As a result, their best use case is currently for receiving broker shipments. Building designs can also expand their own storage space to account for this.
