On-Time. Appointment‑Ready.
Retail-Proven.
Retail freight is unforgiving — missed appointments mean chargebacks, and reactive capacity during peak season means empty shelves. Most retail shippers are absorbing costs they don’t have to.
What Unmanaged Retail Freight Is Costing You
Retail Freight Has Zero Margin for Error.
Store replenishment, e-commerce fulfillment, and promotional freight all run on tight appointment windows — and retailers don’t forgive late arrivals. A missed delivery window isn’t just a logistics issue. It’s a chargeback, a fine, and a buyer conversation you don’t want to have.
Most retail shippers manage freight reactively — scrambling for capacity during peak season, absorbing deductions quarter after quarter, and losing visibility the moment a shipment leaves the dock. PLS was built to fix exactly that.
PLS executes against strict retail routing guides and appointment windows — dry van, intermodal, and expedited — reducing chargeback exposure and keeping your buyer relationships intact.
Large, flexible carrier capacity across all modes lets your retail network scale instantly during seasonal spikes and promotional windows — without paying emergency spot rates.
PLS Pro™ and PLS IQ deliver real-time tracking, SLA dashboards, and exception alerts. A dedicated retail team handles centralized exception management — so issues get resolved before they become deductions.
