Swedish term or phrase: snabblager
Seems to refer in the text to a self-service cash-and-carry warehouse but I need something to distinguish between "hämtlager/hämtningslager" and "snabblager", i.e. if I use "cash-and-carry" for the former what could I use for "snabblager"?
Any help gratefully received. Thanks.
