Manhattan SCALE™ Transforms Business for LeSaint Logistics
LeSaint Logistics began as a regional transportation company but has evolved into a 3PL with fifteen facilities stretching from southern California to northeastern Pennsylvania. Those locations provide 2.8 million square feet of space to chemical, retail, beverage, pharmaceutical and industrial customers.
The Challenge
Regional transportation company, LeSaint Logistics, needed a supply chain solution to accommodate its double-digit growth and complex customer requirements. LeSaint’s existing solution did not provide adequate flexibility or scalability.
Operations
Headquarters: Elgin, IL
Warehouses: 15 (2.3 million square feet under roof, 500,000 exterior storage)
Solution Implemented
