Warehouse space for a port-based game economy

How should the society organize storage in towns where it has industry?

Provide storage in each industrial town and maximize warehouse capacity at a central hub.

The proposed storage arrangement puts warehouses in every town where the player society has industry. One town would also become the central hub, with as much storage as could be fitted there. In Pirates of the Burning Sea, this combines local space for production with a larger common stockpile.
