MAKE: Manufacturing & Packaging Disciplines
Traditional Third Party Logistics (3PL) expertise ends at the factory doors. This obsolete, silo notion will not work in today’s environment. Your supply chain provider must have a solid background in production disciplines, regardless of the scope of work they perform for you.

Your Outsource Strategy?
Do you have an outsource strategy for manufacturing or packaging? Does your competition? Shedding assets and lowering variable costs are just two potential benefits of outsourcing some MAKE functions.
Tactical to Strategic
Outsource production has long been a tactical solution for leveling spikes and seasonal swings. It is now an accepted and critical element in today's supply chain. Having a 3PL partner that understands the manufacturing and packaging function is critical to maximizing your investment.
Two Decades of Experience
TLC's production experience extends back into the early 1990's. Far from a recent add-on or acquisition, it’s a core discipline and a significant percent of revenue.
Integrating the MAKE discipline with MOVE and HOLD capabilities creates new opportunities for synergies, lowers silo barriers and enables a holistic view of your supply chain. This both drives customer service and lowers total landed cost.
