Our connected network of locations, technologies, people, and processes align to drive speed, dependability, and value throughout your product’s journey to market.
3PL & Omni-Channel Logistics
Because most sales and distribution markets are highly regionalized many companies find themselves stuck managing their market-side supply chain through a patchwork of local third party suppliers. But piecing together nationwide exposure through multiple vendors can come with some pretty serious sacrifices to consistency, service quality and administrative budgets.
PD is a fully integrated, single-source national provider of supply chain support and management. We deliver our market-side supply chain solutions across a seamless footprint that reaches into all fifty U.S. states providing the coast-to-coast coverage our partners desire with the ease that only a single, unified organization can offer.
Distributed Warehousing
Our intelligent order routing systems precisely match orders to the PD shipping location with the most complete order fill inventory and the nearest proximity to the final destination. Each strategically placed distribution center in our nationwide network is regionally zone optimized for optimal coverage reducing distance-to-destination and time-in-transit allowing us to efficiently and cost-effectively reach over 99% of customers across the United States by the next day.
Fulfillment Technologies
PD is physical distribution. Our value is amplified through the fast, efficient movement of goods through our facilities and on to their final destinations. Our inhouse order cycle time averages less than 35 minutes from order-entered to order-fulfilled with over 95% of those parcel orders fulfilled and shipped to their final destination within the same day. Starting with the most intelligent, deeply integrated inventory control, warehouse management, and order fulfillment technologies then aligning those tools with expert staff from the warehouse floor to the executive offices, PD sets the measure for speed, accuracy, and overall value.
