Third-Party Logistics
Solutions for warehousing solution providers
Industry Overview
With a changing consumer market, shippers need to do more to offer their customers more convenient and higher quality service. From online orders and buy online, pickup in-store to retail locations, retailers face increasing logistical pressure to get their products where they need to be. This means more and more retailers will be looking to outsource their logistics services to forward-thinking, capable third-party logistics (3PL) providers. But how can 3PLs deliver better service to their customers? Investing in innovative new technology, like collaborative mobile robotics, enables you to give your customers world-leading results.
Industry Trends
- Due to the competitive nature of the third-party logistics market, 3PLs are looking for solutions to help them shorten delivery times, increase the breadth and quality of their services, and lower costs.
- Customer demand is becoming more diverse and individual which requires highly flexible warehousing operations.
- SKU proliferation and omnichannel fulfillment make warehousing operations more complicated to manage, require more precision and stronger digital capabilities.
- Rising external costs from scarce labor, land, and transportation make warehousing operations more expensive and harder to plan for.
