Bonded warehouses (customs brokerage)

GCL operates several strategically located bonded warehousing facilities, which enable you to reduce customs costs by deferring duty payments and enhance delivery lead times. By providing comprehensive freight forwarding solutions, GCL serves as a single logistics partner to manage all aspects of international trade, including transportation, customs brokerage, warehousing, and distribution.

Distribution Centers

Customers from diverse industries are accommodated under one roof in our shared warehouses. Gerlach Customs and Logistics Distribution Centers provide comprehensive services, including order management, inventory management, and vendor management. Your operation will benefit from an on-site management team and a workforce trained specifically in your product and organizational culture, effectively becoming an extension of your brand. As a third-party logistics provider, we are dedicated to continuous improvement projects and initiatives aimed at identifying additional cost savings and enhancing operational efficiencies.

Robust Production Logistics Solutions

We provide on-site production logistics services, including the handling and storage of raw materials in alignment with production lines, management of consumables and packaging materials, selection of finished products from production lines for delivery to distribution centers, and coordination of material flow between different units within a facility.

Technology within our warehouses

We enhance our warehouses with a range of advanced technology systems, including our warehouse management system (WMS). Our IT tools negate the need for investments in redundant, outdated, or insufficient IT resources, offering you the advantages of our ongoing investments in technology upgrades and feature enhancements.

Cross-Docking Services

Traditional logistics methods require separate shipment planning for each outlet from every supplier. In contrast, modern cross-docking operations consolidate products from all suppliers at a central location. Goods are then sorted for delivery at the lowest possible transportation cost. With Gerlach Customs and Logistics’ efficient cross-docking services, products are sorted to achieve the fastest delivery times, significantly reducing carrying costs.

Value-Added Services (VAS)

We provide on-demand value-added services, including labeling, 2D barcoding, instruction manual attachment, price tag printing, assortment formation, hanging, safety band attachment, promotional package preparation, and warranty attachment. These services are managed and monitored through a dedicated module in our warehouse management system, with real-time reporting capabilities.

Extensive Return Management Applications

Return management, offered by our Warehouse Management Service Unit, is integrated into our reverse logistics service framework. This service encompasses the acceptance, handling, and sorting of returned goods, quality control of returns at Gerlach Customs and Logistics' warehouses, reintegration of acceptable products into inventory, and proper disposal of defective items.

In warehouse logistics, Gerlach Customs and Logistics provides flexible storage solutions, including picking and packing services, cross-docking operations, and KPI reporting for ongoing improvement. Depending on your business requirements, you can choose from multi-customer sites, logistics campuses, or dedicated warehouses with either manual or automated solutions. Our customized warehousing options include dynamic storage, pallet racks, mezzanine levels, ambient or controlled temperature storage, bonded warehouses, and high-security zones for sensitive products.
