Third Party Logistics

What is third party logistics?

Third-party logistics (abbreviated TPL or 3PL) simply means that a third party takes over some or all parts of another company's logistics functions. The service is thus a type of outsourcing of the business, so-called outsourcing. Logistics functions usually include inventory management and warehousing, as well as distribution of goods from supplier to recipient.

Benefits of 3PL

For many companies, logistics is a costly and time-consuming function that is often outside the actual core business. By transferring warehousing and / or delivery functions to an external party with large volume advantages, which is what 3PL is all about, you can save both time and money and instead focus on driving the company forward.
