When we asked founders and CEOs what the most significant operational change was that they needed to make to double their revenue, more than 20% said it would be to establish a multiwarehouse fulfillment structure. This need became more relevant for higher-volume sellers, which comes as no surprise – the larger your brand becomes, the higher the demand will be.
For many brands, using third-party logistics (3PL) warehouses is an easy way to scale your fulfillment operations while meeting customer demand. But how do you tell which are the top 3PL providers for an ecommerce business? It’s a good question, as there exist hundreds of 3PL providers – large enterprise firms and small local providers, 3PLs that specialize in specific industries, and those that offer more general services. To help you in your search, we’ve pulled together a list of some leading 3PL partners and their locations, specialty services, and ideal order volume.
It’s important to note that this list isn’t ranked in any order. You’ll need to analyze your needs and review which 3PL is right for you. Luckily, we've got some great tips for selecting the best 3PL partner so you can enter these discussions with all the information you need.
What is a 3PL?
3PL (third party logistics) is a service used by businesses to outsource their warehousing and logistics needs to a third-party company. This includes everything from receiving purchase orders to order fulfillment. Third-party logistics companies are key partners in improving supply chain efficiency.
