Largest Chemical Company in the World Uses Porter Logistics for Import, Export, Distribution, and Manufacturing Plant Support
One of the largest chemical companies in the world needed a full 3PL Warehousing partner for HAZMAT Chemicals in Atlanta. Their manufacturing plant produces 100's of SKU's at scale across various Hazard classes and product was piling up at the end of the production line. Porter needed to warehouse imported materials, supply the plant with high volume daily shuttles, and then receive finished product across various Hazard classes. Porter then needed to distribute this product across the United States - fulfilling orders of drums, pails, IBC's, Bags, supersacks, and various form factors. Porter was also asked to provide export services to APAC, EMEA, & the Americas.
Build a dynamic, flexible warehousing and fulfillment network that meets demand, every time. Get the logistics services you need to exceed customer expectations and grow your business fast.
We offer full 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 3PL services warehouse services across a diverse set of industries including but not limited to consumer products, retail, Food & Beverage, Pharmaceuticals and others
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:
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:
Fill out the form on our website, call us at 404-574-464, or email us at sales@porter-logistics for quote – we’ve done this quite a bit and can zero in on costs pretty quickly
We service manufacturers, retailers, brands, and direct sellers from a diverse set of industries including but not limited to:
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-150 pallet range
We’re of the firm opinion that offering Atlanta HAZMAT certified 3PL warehouse services without opening yourself up to 3rd party audits is a big red flag
We subject ourselves to the following outside audits:
We also maintain industry and business affiliations along with continuous learning relationships with the International Warehouse & Logistics Association (IWLA), Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP), the Southeast Warehouse Association (SWA), Alliance for Chemical Distribution, and local Atlanta Chamber of Commerce
