So why outsource the warehouse logistics function? Because it PAYS!
Manufacturers, distributors and retailers who outsource save time and money.
 Outsourcing warehouse logistics operations to an IWLA member adds to the bottom line for both the
retailer and manufacturer through accurate, well-managed inventory and supply
chain solutions.
Outsourcing reduces the need for costly real estate to hold inventory.
IWLA members offer expertise that manufacturers, distributors and shippers can tap
into, allowing users to achieve supply chain solutions with their customers
