3PL Specialties

Oftentimes, 3PLs specialize in certain areas. This is a good thing for their customer base, as the 3PL becomes highly competent in a particular area, which brings expertise and further potential cost savings through near flawless execution. Common areas of differentiation include:

• Product based (apparel, food, pharmaceutical, etc.)
• Sized based (small volume versus high volume of orders and shipments, etc.)
• Location based (single location, multiple locations, multiple countries, etc.)
• Service based (B2C, B2B, subscription fulfillment, cross docking, etc.)
