3PL

A third-party logistics provider (abbreviated 3PL) is a company that provides outsourced or “third party” logistics services to companies for part, or sometimes all their supply chain management function. Third party logistics providers typically specialize in integrated operation and freight transportation services that can be scaled and customized to customer’s needs based on market conditions and the demands and delivery service requirements for their products and materials shipping.

Benefits of 3PL

Simply put, a 3PL offers you the best shipping and freight service based on your needs. As a transportation broker, Southport Logistics is not tied to fulfilling our own fleet of trucks but is only tied to finding you the best shipping solution.
What we offer as a shipping and freight provider is a team of transportation experts with accumulated freight industry expertise and information technology assets. We are a full-service shipping and freight advisor and keep a significantly higher degree of “firsthand” involvement in the transportation of your products.
