I am so happy with everything that LP (Logistics Plus) has done for us. We are creating solutions and implementing SOP’s that are substantially changing our operations capabilities and strengthening our business so we can function in an entirely different stratosphere than where we began. Our goal next year is to triple our sales and we could NOT have done that without a foundational structure that’s as strong as what you are providing us. I hope everyone on your team knows how deeply valued they are to Faro and that we couldn’t have gotten here without all of you!

“I wanted to create a company where people have a passion for excellence. Any logistics company can coordinate deliveries from point A to point B, but I wanted a company where people GAS (give a sh–) by going above and beyond what is expected. That’s how I arrived at the company name Logistics Plus – because we’re the company that puts the ‘plus‘ in ‘logistics‘ by doing the big things properly, and the countless little things, that together ensure complete customer satisfaction and success. When the other guys say ‘no’ we say ‘yes‘ and then figure out how to get it done.”
– Jim Berlin, founder & CEO of Logistics Plus Inc.

PLUS
The “+” in Logistics Plus is doing big things properly, and the countless little things, that together ensure complete customer satisfaction and success, including handling supply chain challenges from start-to-finish, and by doing what “the other guys” can’t or won’t do.
