3PL Logistics FAQ’s: Terms of the Distribution Business

3PL Logistics FAQ’s: Terms of the Distribution BusinessYou may come across technical lingo you’re unsure of when in search of a warehousing and distribution company that fits your needs. To help with your search, here are some terms associated with warehousing and distribution and what it means for you:

Cross-Docking Programs: Cross-docking is when products are transported with little to no storage time between order and delivery. Depending on the product, cross-docking can help consumers save time, money and frustration with expedited delivery.

Cool Warehouse & Cold Storage: If you are in need of a warehouse to store perishable items, you are in search of a warehouse with cold storage capabilities. A cool warehouse will be able to store your perishable products at the correct temperature to avoid rotting, sprouting and insect damage. Just take notice of the location, as it’s a good idea for the warehouse to be near a market/growing area, heavy vehicle accessibility and an uninterrupted power supply.

AIB Audited: What does it mean when a warehousing and distribution company is AIB audited? This means that the company you are looking into has passed in-depth food safety audits and inspections by the AIB International. When a company has been AIB audited, they are among the elite warehousing facilities regarded as the best of the best!

How to Find the Right Distribution Company

How to Find the Right Distribution CompanyWhat should you look for in a warehousing and transportation company? This question makes all the difference when it comes to hiring the right company for you and your needs. There are many companies to choose from and it’s important to do your research and ensure the company you’re considering is above average.
 
Technology: When you work with a company that has the latest and greatest warehousing and distribution technologies at its disposal, you get advantages such as real-time updates 24 hours a day and stress-free modifications when your needs change.

A strong commitment to operational excellence: If you’re looking into a distribution company and find that their own in-house operations are not up to par, the handling of your goods will probably not be anything to rave about, either. Find a company that has a strong foundation with their own in-house operations and you have probably found yourself a company that will genuinely care about your operations, as well.

Dedicated customer service representatives: You want to hire a professional, top of the line company and good customer service is a major piece! Find a company whose people will treat you with respect, address any issues or concerns in a timely manner and follow up with you every step of the way. Just a quick call or email letting you know that someone is on top of your requests can make all the difference and set your mind at ease.

At PSS Distribution Services, we believe it’s important to ask questions and obtain as much information as possible before contracting with a warehousing and distribution company. If a company you’re currently working with or considering is lacking, it may be time to look elsewhere.
