Third Party Logistics Providers offer outsourced logistics services to companies for part or sometimes all of their supply chain management. Warehousing, transportation, and other value added logistics services are typically integrated by these companies to offer a well rounded logistics solution.


About 3PL Providers 

The greatest asset of using Third Party Logistics providers or 3PL's is the flexibility they provide in warehouse space, labor, and equipment. For some companies running their own distribution program is cost prohibitive because of the seasonality of their business. Also some companies choose to partner with 3PL providers to allow themselves to focus on their core business while letting inventory management professionals manage their logistics function.

Below is a list of third party logistics providers. For more information on 3PL selection and implementation please see my third party logistics resources lens.
