3PL USA

Third party logistics is a rapidly growing industry, as more and more companies across the country are looking to streamline and enhance their fulfillment operations. Here are 10 things to know about 3PL in the USA today:

Your company may be “doing fulfillment” in house, but taking orders and filling those orders is not what your business is all about. With 3PL USA style, you can direct all your talent and energy toward mission-critical activities such as product development and deepening customer relationships.

You have to know what you need before you can get what you want. This quiz will help you identify what matters for your company and evaluate your current situation.

Every time you screw up, it costs your company dearly. Mistakes and delays irritate customers, which loses sales and damages your brand’s reputation.

There is such a thing as “high touch 3PL.” It’s not for every company, but for some it is essential. What does it take to impress your customers?

3PL in the USA should start in the USA. American customers are far happier and buy more when they can easily converse with call center reps who are both friendly and deeply product-knowledgeable.

The Difference Between Us and Them

There’s a difference – a huge difference – between a 3PL vendor and a company that has what it takes to serve as a long-term working partner. It’s a difference you can take to the bank.

The right partner can and will fully tailor their services, service levels, and tracking and reporting to match your company and customer needs.

The right 3PL provider will automatically pass along their lower negotiated rates with delivery carriers, and they’ll always base shipping choices on the option that represents the best price for you.

Only a handful of fulfillment providers are registered with the FDA as Food Grade. For most companies, that doesn’t matter. But if you are in the dietary supplements or health and beauty industries, for example, it does matter. You cannot afford any potential failures when it comes to product safety or regulatory compliance.
