My kids are year-round swimmers. If you’re not familiar with swimming, it is THE WORST spectator sport. Swim meets usually consist of 3 – 4 days of sitting in a loud, chlorine-gas-filled box waiting for your kids to swim their race, which only last from 30 seconds to 5 minutes… then more waiting.

Over the past 12 months, online purchasing has increased rapidly – up 32% in 2020 over 2019 which was not anticipated to hit these levels until 2025. We are well ahead of the anticipated growth of this market transformation. How can 3PLs adapt to this modern wave of economic disruption and opportunity? Many 3PLs are still not focused on eCommerce yet, despite the fact they already have the storage capacity and staff to get started. Perhaps a 3PL only needs to shift some things around to create efficient pick aisles […]
