3PL (Third-Party Logistics)

3PL stands for Third-Party Logistics and describes an important approach in the modern logistics industry. As a 3PL provider, we take on logistics tasks for our customers and act as an external logistics service provider. This goes far beyond simple transport services.

We integrate ourselves deeply into our customers’ supply chains and manage complex logistics processes. The 3PL logistics concept covers a wide range of services, from warehousing and distribution to value-added services such as packaging and returns management. The core of our work as a 3PL logistics company is to offer our customers customised solutions that meet their specific needs. By outsourcing their logistics to us, companies can concentrate on their core business while we take care of the efficient handling of their goods flows.
This results in cost savings, increased flexibility and improved performance throughout the supply chain.

As a specialised 3PL service provider, we have the expertise, technology and resources to effectively overcome logistical challenges and give our customers a competitive advantage.

The development of 3PL logistics

The development of 3PL logistics is closely linked to changes in the global economy. In the 1970s, companies began to outsource individual logistics tasks to external service providers. This marked the beginning of the 3PL concept. With increasing globalisation and more complex supply chains, the need for specialised logistics service providers grew. In the 1980s and 1990s, 3PL logistics developed into an independent business model.

As a 3PL provider, we began to offer comprehensive logistics solutions that went far beyond simple transport and warehousing services. Digitalisation in the 2000s provided a further boost to our development. We integrated advanced IT systems that enabled the precise tracking and control of goods flows. Today, our offering as a 3PL logistics company includes highly complex, customised solutions that are deeply integrated into our customers’ business processes. Contract logistics 3PL has established itself as a particularly effective model for long-term partnerships.
