LF Logistics provides Distribution Center (DC) Management services to nearly 400 brands worldwide ensuring that their products are stored and handled with the care they deserve. Close collaboration with brand owners allows us to tailor our warehousing solutions and deliver quality services at competitive prices, giving brand owners peace of mind.
Today, we operate more than 150 DCs around the world. That is more than 20 million square feet of warehouse space in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Pakistan, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines, United Kingdom and USA.
Each warehouse is customized to efficiently serve a product vertical or, in some cases, a specific client. Whether it be for FMCG products, Footwear & Apparel, Food & Beverages, or in support of Retail Logistics activities, the design requirements for storage and handling will vary according to business needs.
The movement of both goods and people is also simulated using system optimization tools to determine the best warehouse layout. This is supported by the most appropriate material handling equipment to ensure optimum performance.
Storage
Our warehousing services are flexible and configured to our clients’ specific requirements. We offer a variety of storage types that includes ambient, air-conditioned, chilled and frozen. We also offer storage solutions for bonded products, dangerous goods, and high value merchandize.
Cross-Docking & Flow Through
Our focus is on moving products efficiently through the supply chain. To achieve that, we offer cross-docking services at our Distribution Centers (DCs) and depots. That is where we receive products from our clients or their suppliers and streamline the journey to their intended destinations without physically storing them in the warehouse.
We also offer flow through services where products are received in bulk (palletized), picked in smaller form (cartons or unit) and undergo Value Added Services (VAS) before they are packed for delivery to their respective destinations.
Bonded Warehousing
Bonded warehousing helps maximize cash flow on dutiable imports. Products held under a bonded warehouse shall defer duty payment until they are released. Products in a bonded warehouse that are meant for export are also waived from duty payment.
Each of our bonded warehouses is licensed by the local authorities and operated to the highest standard. We make sure that both our processes and Warehouse Management System (WMS) meet the strict customs regulations for bonded warehousing operations.
Reverse Logistics
Reverse logistics is a crucial part of the supply chain but often “out of sight, out of mind”. If not managed well, it can drain a business’ profitability.
Our Warehouse Management System (WMS) facilitates reverse logistics and is able to manage product recalls, rejections, or returns. Upon receiving a product, we capture its vital information such as batch number, lot number, serial number, or manufacturing date for every unit that comes into the warehouse. We continue to track this information until the products are delivered to our customers. This stays in our WMS in case we need to recall products, verify rejections, or validate returns.
