Logistics Plus Opens New 1.1 Million Square Foot Phoenix Warehouse
The new warehouse is next to the company’s existing 543 thousand square foot Phoenix facility.
ERIE, PA (December 15, 2022) – Logistics Plus, Inc. (LP), a leading worldwide provider of transportation, logistics, and supply chain solutions, is pleased to announce the opening of a new 1.1 million square foot warehouse in the greater Phoenix area. The new warehouse, located at the NEC Loop 303 and Bethany Home Road intersection in Glendale, Arizona, is adjacent to the 543 thousand square foot warehouse Logistics Plus opened earlier in the year.
Logistics Plus now has 18 fully managed commercial warehouses in the U.S., comprising 5 million square feet of storage space. The company also manages many additional virtual and commercial warehouses worldwide.
The new “LP PHX 2” warehouse is in a growing industrial development region northwest of Phoenix. The facility features quick freeway access, 395 trailer stalls, and 40-foot ceilings and is only a six-hour drive from the Los Angeles/Long Beach ports. Tom Kelly, Regional Director of Sales and Operations for Logistics Plus, will oversee the move-in and ongoing management of the operation, in addition to the company’s other Phoenix and four southern California warehouses.
“As other logistics companies slow down or reduce their warehousing footprints, we are doubling down to meet the current and future needs of our customers,” said Yuriy Ostapyak, COO for Logistics Plus. “We still see strong demand for our commercial warehousing solutions in key verticals, and we expect that growth to continue. Our new, second Phoenix warehouse will allow us to keep pace with that growth.”
Earlier this week, Multichannel Merchant named Logistics Plus a 2023 Top 3PL for e-commerce warehousing and fulfillment solutions. View a map of all Logistics Plus U.S. warehouses at www.logisticsplus.com/warehouse-map.

Logistics Plus Named a 2023 Top 3PL by Multichannel Merchant
It’s the sixth consecutive year Logistics Plus has been named to the list.
ERIE, PA (December 13, 2022) – Logistics Plus, Inc. (LP), a leading worldwide provider of transportation, logistics, and supply chain solutions, is proud to announce it has been named to the Multichannel Merchant (MCM) 2023 Top 3PL Directory. For a sixth straight year, Logistics Plus will be joining dozens of other leading third-party logistics providers selected by Multichannel Merchant in its eighth annual directory.
After researching candidates across the industry and reviewing submissions from providers, Multichannel Merchant identified top companies, both generalists and specialists, offering a range of valuable services and deep expertise. 3PL providers have reported increased interest and adoption from retailers of all kinds, many of whom are quickly realizing that their internal resources are not up to the task of handling order fulfillment and logistics at scale.
“Choosing the right 3PL for your business can lead to lower cost per order, rapid scaling, a larger footprint and coverage, faster time to customer, and so much more,” said Mike O’Brien, Senior Content Manager of Multichannel Merchant. “Each company in our directory has been selected based on its industry experience, services offered, performance, and range of capabilities.”
The company profiles in the MCM Top 3PL directory include vital information to help you in the selection process, including key services offered, average annual client order volume, top three merchandise categories handled, facility locations, and more. It also breaks out the percentage of the continental U.S. covered based on days in transit to end customers, a critical differentiator for merchants. The directory is available throughout the year.
“With over five million square feet of warehousing in the U.S. alone, and more abroad, we support complete omnichannel fulfillment solutions, including B2B, wholesale and direct-to-consumer channels such as FBA, FBM, and dozens of other marketplaces and shopping carts,” said Danny Yunes, head of global operations and strategy. “We are honored that Multichannel Merchant continues to acknowledge Logistics Plus as a top 3PL provider in the competitive, growing e-commerce space.”
