When it comes to using a 3PL company, why outsource the warehouse logistics function? Simple. Because it PAYS! Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers who outsource save time and money. Outsourcing warehouse logistics operations adds to the bottom line for both the retailer and manufacturer through accurate, well-managed inventory and supply chain solutions.

Additionally, outsourcing reduces the need for costly real estate to hold inventory. 3PLs like CWI Logistics offer the expertise that manufacturers, distributors, and shippers can tap into, allowing users to achieve supply chain solutions for their customers that minimize total delivery costs.
