Atlanta Public & Multi-Client Warehousing Services

Public warehousing, also known as multi-client warehousing involves the use of 3PL warehousing shared with other clients. 

Pros of Public Warehousing:

Low upfront investment (no need to buy/rent your own facility)

Flexible space for seasonal or variable demand

Fast setup compared to building your own warehouse operations

Access to professional warehousing services without needing in-house expertise

Porter Logistics offers specialized facilities that adhere to strict Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) standards to ensure product quality, safety, and integrity.

• We offer Atlanta 3PL warehousing & distribution services which could include import, export, devanning and palletizing of floor-loaded containers among many other general warehousing services like transloading, cross-docking, and reverse Logistics
• Porter Logistics also offers order fulfillment services across channels meaning we can unite brick and mortar + eCommerce orders and send to both businesses and direct to consumer’s homes
• We also provide value added services like kitting, repacking, custom labeling, and reverse logistics
• Finally, we also offer Atlanta 3PL warehouse services across a diverse set of industries including but not limited to consumer products, retail, Food & Beverage, HAZMAT, Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals and others

We are fully GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) compliant and audited by both the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and AIB (American Institute of Baking). These certifications demonstrate our commitment to maintaining the highest standards in food safety and quality management.​

Our GMP program is also compliant with “cGMP” or “Current Good Manufacturing Practice” which refers to a set of regulations enforced by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ensure the quality and safety of products manufactured for human and animal use. cGMP aims to establish minimum requirements for the methods, facilities, and controls used in manufacturing, processing, and packing of regulated products, including pharmaceuticals, medical devices, nutraceutical, and food and dietary supplements.

We also maintain industry and business affiliations along with continuous learning relationships with the Global Cold Chain Alliance (GCCA) International Warehouse & Logistics Association (IWLA), Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP), the Southeast Warehouse Association (SWA), Alliance for Chemical Distribution, and local Chamber of Commerce.

• Because we service a diverse set of industries, we also have a diverse set of capabilities not found in most general warehousing partners such as:

• • • Refrigerated and Atlanta cold storage warehousing

• Direct rail access

• Temperature controlled rooms (cooled & heated) 

• Software we’ve developed in-house for greater efficiencies 

• Flame rooms with foam suppression systems

• GMP certified facilities as certified by both the US Food & Drug administration (FDA) as well as the American Institute of Baking (AIB)

• We run a tight ship and possess a “swiss army knife” of capabilities needed to properly execute the needs of an Omnichannel supply chain

If it was as simple as posting blanket pricing on our website, we would! But unfortunately, pricing can vary due to the following factors:

• Length of contract
• Type of commodity 
• Value added services (e.g., kitting, repacking)
• Storage & Handling Volumes
• Seasonality of your business
• Specialized equipment provided
• Product value and liability 
• Payment terms
• Specialized features provided (e.g., temp control) and more!

Our clients range from Fortune 10, among the largest organizations in the world, with 10,000+ allocated pallet spaces to smaller privately held companies with 200 pallets on hand. We’re open to hearing a growth story, but generally we’re not a good fit for younger companies in the sub-200 pallet range

• We also can export manufactured goods from the United States across the globe on multiple methods of transportation including Air, Ocean, Rail, and Over the Road (OTR) freight

We don’t possess any transportation assets in-house but maintain a tight relationship with multiple freight brokers who offer great pricing on drayage, FTL, LTL, FCL, LCL, and other modes of transportation….we would be pleased to obtain competitive quotes on your behalf and coordinate all aspects of your warehousing and transportation operations

  • EDI & API connections
  • eCommerce store integrations for quick implementations
  • Real-time inventory tracking
• We’ve also developed in-house dock management software to book appointments, reduce dock congestion, and increase loading and unloading efficiency
• Out in the warehouse, we use a mix of handheld and long distance Zebra scanners (best-in-class) to ensure product is properly tracked and accounted for as it moves in and out of the warehouse

Porter adheres to security best practices including but not limited to:

• CCTV footage
