There’s a question every serious supply chain conversation eventually lands on:
What exactly does Logistics Plus do?
The honest answer is: more than most companies expect. And now we’ve made it easier than ever to see the full picture. Our newly updated corporate brochure is available online. This concise introduction to Logistics Plus offers a comprehensive overview of the solutions we provide to mid-market and top-tier companies navigating some of the world’s most complex supply chain environments.

One company. Four solution categories. Endless configurations.
Logistics Plus organizes its solutions into four core areas — not because we operate in silos, but because our clients’ challenges rarely fit neatly into one:
4PL & Technology Solutions — For companies that need more than a provider, we act as a supply chain integrator: managing carrier networks, deploying our MyLogisticsPlus™ technology platform, and providing the Global Control Tower visibility that gives operations teams a real-time window into every shipment, every mode, across every market. Fewer expedites. Fewer missed SLAs. Lower logistics cost per unit.
Freight Forwarding & Project Logistics — Complex cargo is our bread and butter. Ocean, air, breakbulk, oversize, mission-critical — we move freight that other providers decline, with in-house expertise across 55+ countries and a track record that includes some genuinely extraordinary projects.
Transportation Management — Domestic and cross-border, LTL to full truckload, eShipPlus™ TMS to fully managed transportation programs. We optimize carrier selection, audit freight invoices, manage routing compliance, and deliver the kind of account-level attention that becomes harder to find as providers grow.
Warehouse, Fulfillment & Installations — From on-demand storage to full distribution center operations, FF&E project management to last-mile fulfillment, we build warehouse solutions around your product and your network — not the other way around.
Built for what’s next. Built for you.
What sets Logistics Plus apart isn’t the list of services. It’s how we deliver them. Every engagement starts from scratch. We don’t hand clients a template; we build solutions calibrated to their freight profile, their industry, and their growth trajectory. That’s as true for a $500M industrial distributor as it is for a Fortune 500 enterprise.
Our Global Control Tower capability is the engine behind that promise. Staffed by experienced logistics professionals and powered by integrated technology, it gives clients end-to-end supply chain visibility that reduces reactive firefighting, costly expedites, carrier exceptions, and SLA misses that drain logistics budgets and operations teams alike.
Speed and agility aren’t marketing language for us. When the market shifts, capacity tightens, tariffs change, or new lanes open, we move faster than organizations built for scale at the expense of flexibility.

Logistics Plus Moves Up the Ranks Among the Transport Topics 2026 Top 100 North American Logistics Companies
Logistics Plus also ranked among the Top 50 Dry Storage Warehousing Firms and Freight Brokerage Firms.
ERIE, PA (April 21, 2026) – Logistics Plus, Inc. (LP), a global leader in transportation, logistics, and unique supply chain solutions, is proud to announce that it has been named to the annual Transport Topics Top 100 list of North America’s largest logistics companies based on gross revenue for the most recent 12-month period. Logistics Plus moved up two positions in the rankings, for a second straight year, to the 78th spot. It’s the fourth straight year that Logistics Plus has been named to the list. Logistics Plus also ranked as the 32nd-largest dry storage warehousing firm (no change from last year) and the 48th-largest freight brokerage firm (up from 66th last year).
“TT’s Top 100 Logistics Companies list ranks the largest 3PL providers in North America based on annual gross revenue generated by their logistics services, including freight brokerage, transportation management, freight forwarding, warehousing, and asset-based dedicated contract carriage,” said Seth Clevenger, Managing Editor of Features and Multimedia at Transport Topics. “No. 78 Logistics Plus expanded its brokerage operations through its purchase of Chicago-based LoadDelivered Logistics in September.”
“When we started in 1996, it was just a handful of people. No grand plan. No big investor. Just energy, ideas, and a belief that if we worked harder, cared more, and kept showing up, good things would happen. A true passion for excellence,” said Jim Berlin, Founder and CEO of Logistics Plus. “Now here we are, 30 years later, in a world that feels uncertain and complicated. Wars, elections, tariffs, supply chain disruptions. It’s a lot. And yet, through all of it, this team keeps moving, keeps solving, keeps growing, and keeps finding a way or making one.”

Guidance and Action Plan Regarding IEEPA Tariff Refunds (4/20/26)
New update:
Download IEEPA Duty Refunds Fact Sheet
TL;DR 👉 US CBP went live at 8 AM EST today, April 20th, with the CAPE (Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries) system for applying for the IEEPA duty refunds.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will issue validated refunds for duties paid under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Declarations are submitted and processed using the new Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE) tool, which enables batch handling of IEEPA duty refunds.
US CBP has issued the IEEPA Duty Refunds Fact Sheet, which is attached and also provided below. All IOR’s that apply for duty refunds should already have their electronic payment, or ACH, set up, as this is the only way to receive refunds.
Requesting refunds of IEEPA duties requires only the following summarized actions:
- Importers of Record and authorized Customs brokers have an established ACE Secure Data Portal account (ACE Portal account)
- Recipients use the ACE Portal account to provide CBP with bank account information
- Importers of Record and authorized Customs brokers submit CAPE Declarations in the ACE Portal (See below for details)
Importers of Record (IORs) and Customs brokers will be able to file a CAPE Declaration, using a Comma-Separated Values (.CSV) file, through their web-based ACE Secure Data Portal (ACE Portal) account. Filers will not use the Automated Broker Interface (ABI) to file a CAPE Declaration.
The CAPE Declaration consists of the list of entries for which refunds of IEEPA duties are being requested. CBP will not require any other information in the .CSV file. Each individual CAPE Declaration has a limit of 9,999 entries. IORs and brokers can file multiple CAPE Declarations. The CAPE Declaration template file will be available through the “Upload” button in the CAPE tab.
Only the IOR for the listed entries or the authorized customs broker that filed the entries on behalf of the IOR may file the CAPE Declaration.
Once a CAPE Declaration is validated and accepted, ACE will update the appropriate entry summary lines by removing the IEEPA Harmonized Tariff Schedule Chapter 99 provision and the corresponding IEEPA duties, resulting in an updated version of the entry. Following CBP review, entries will be liquidated or reliquidated, and refunds will be consolidated by IOR, or by the party the IOR has designated to receive refunds on its behalf via CBP Form 4811 (“Form 4811 notify party”), and the liquidation date.
Importers and authorized brokers should anticipate that valid IEEPA refunds will generally be issued within 60-90 days after acceptance of the CAPE Declaration, unless a compliance concern requires further CBP review. However, certain scenarios, such as entries that are extended, suspended, or under review, and warehouse entries, will maintain their liquidation status with validated refunds issued at liquidation.
Please note that all CAPE-processed IEEPA duty refunds will be subject to all applicable laws and regulations concerning the liquidation/reliquidation of entries, including the netting of all over- and under-payments for the entire entry, as determined at liquidation or reliquidation, see 19 C.F.R. § 159.1, as well as the potential diversion of refunds as necessary and appropriate to offset the importer’s legally fixed and undisputed unpaid debts to the United States, if any, see 19 C.F.R. § 24.72.
As always, Logistics Plus is here to provide guidance and support.

Guidance and Action Plan Regarding IEEPA Tariff Refunds (4/16/26)
New update:
TL;DR 👉 CBP will host 2 webinars on IEEPA refunds on Thursday and Friday this week. More information can be found below directly from CBP 👇
U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) Office of Trade is hosting two webinars on Thursday, April 16, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. ET and Friday, April 17, 2026, at 2:30 p.m. ET titled “IEEPA Duty Refunds.”
On Friday, April 10, 2026, CBP issued guidance about the upcoming Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) deployment to launch the process to request refunds for duties imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA):
https://www.cbp.gov/trade/programs-administration/trade-remedies/ieepa-duty-refunds. This webinar will review the process under the ACE Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE), from submission of the CAPE Declaration to issuance of an IEEPA refund.
Registration links for these webinars are provided below. PLEASE ONLY REGISTER FOR (1) WEBINAR. THE SAME CONTENT WILL BE SHARED AT BOTH. All registrants will receive the access link for the webinar on the day of the event, but entry into the webinar is on a first-come, first-served basis as seats are limited. After the live event, this and other previously recorded webinars will be available for replay at Trade Outreach Webinars | U.S. Customs and Border Protection (cbp.gov).
- Registration link for Thursday’s webinar on April 16 at 3:00 p.m. ET: Register here
- Registration link for Friday’s webinar on April 17 at 2:30 p.m. ET: Register here
This webinar is a part of CBP’s Continuing Education Program. The number of credits and the credit code will be provided at the end of the webinar.
If you have any questions about this webinar, please contact [email protected].
The refund process is greatly simplified, but a significant concern remains that all entries submitted for refund will go through CBP review, and some will be picked up for a full-blown audit. Our guidance remains the same:
- Track your liquidations dates
- Ensure that all entries that are eligible for IEEPA refunds are correct and fully compliant, so that you do not expose yourself to actions from the CBP audits
As always, Logistics Plus is here to provide guidance and support.
