Leveraging existing third-party logistics (3PL) services can enhance a company’s production and distribution efficiency. A prime example of this is co-packing, a phenomenon that has gained significant traction in Vancouver and other key Canadian cities.
Co-packing is a strategic process where a company outsources packaging production to an industry expert, like a 3PL provider. At companies like 18 Wheels Logistics, state-of-the-art production lines enable high-speed, cost-effective, precise, and reliable co-packing services.
Select the Right Partner
Ensure your 3PL provider is up to the task. Choose a partner with a proven track history in co-packing and warehousing. At 18 Wheels Logistics, which operates the largest, centrally located 3PL warehouse in Vancouver, the capacity is twice as large, capable of handling peak demands.
Work With a Scalable Warehouse
Demand and needs change over time, and having a warehouse that can scale with your needs provides significant value to your supply chain. Look for a co-packing facility that can manage warehousing, trucking, and co-packing in one comprehensive system.
By integrating these duties with a single source, you streamline your operations, reduce costs, and simplify your supply chain.
Maximize Technology Integration
Effective co-packing goes together with advanced technology. Top co-packers employ cutting-edge warehouse management systems, labeling and tracking technologies, and automated packaging robots to ensure seamless logistics.
For any business seeking success in the Vancouver market, leveraging co-packing and existing 3PL facilities can be incredibly beneficial. The key to success is finding the right partner, utilizing single-source solutions, and leveraging the technological advancements that today’s co-packers offer.
