Staff at the Greater Manchester-based JJB Sports have gone on strike in a row over pay and conditions.
The GMB union said 266 of its members were on the picket line outside the warehouse in Martland Park, Wigan, in the early hours of the morning.
There will also be a ban on overtime from Tuesday morning as workers protest against a 3% pay rise.
Union negotiators are seeking a higher basic rate for staff and are calling for equal access to a bonus scheme.
The union says no talks are scheduled.
Staff will repeat the action on Thursday.
