I am looking at a 3PL deal in the consumer personal goods space and would like to connect with 3PL experts to help me pre-screen the opportunity.

Thanks in advance.

Hey ^redacted‌, I led Ops at a VC-backed DTC consumer brand and worked with three (3) 3PLs across 5 years- and vetted another half dozen more. I've engaged some on my own and also used 3PL matching partners, below, to help me evaluate others. Happy to share my experiences and give color commentary on these 2 groups if helpful!

There are literally hundreds. Finding the right fit is a function of volumes (SKU count, pallet count, velocity, etc), product characteristics (temperature controlled or not, kitting, FBA prep, etc.), level of service you need (shipping SLA, bulk postage buying, etc)
