Each year, in its July issue, Inbound Logistics magazine publishes its definitive resource on third-party logistics and the outsourced logistics market. Prior to the issue, they ask their readers which third-party logistics companies provide excellent service, and publish the results. The results of this year’s 3PL Excellence Survey will be presented in its July 3PL issue. Give us your input and they’ll express their appreciation by entering you in a drawing for one of 10 free 18-carat gold Parker pens.
As a mid-sized 3PL, we know we’re a long shot; but we know that none of our competitors can beat us on Passion for Excellence! So, cast your vote for Logistics Plus today!
