The founding duo of Dropp Logistics experienced great success even before they started the company. Both founders had worked together as executives at a global 3PL for a listed coperate, providing them with an incredible total of 20 years of industry experience. Because of this well-honed expertise, they managed to establish a thriving business which provided the package forwarding on the side while they were still employed elsewhere. After seeing how successful it was during its initial growth phase, the two decided to quit their jobs and bring the full 3PL business into Dropp Logistics.
Third-party logistics (3PL) refers to outsourcing supply chain activities—such as transportation, warehousing, inventory management, and order fulfillment—to an external provider.
By leveraging 3PL services, businesses focus on their core competencies while professionals manage the logistics.
Here’s how 3PL integrates into your supply chain:
Inventory Storage: Products are stored in a 3PL-managed warehouse.
Order Processing: Once an order is placed, the 3PL picks and packs items.
Shipping: The 3PL partners with carriers to ensure prompt delivery.
Returns Management: Customer returns are processed efficiently to maintain satisfaction.
Cost Savings: Eliminates the need to own or lease warehouses.
Scalability: Supports seasonal spikes and growth without infrastructure investment.
Expertise: Access to advanced technology and optimized processes.
