The Solution
Wagner has handled complex warehousing, shipping, and transportation tasks with ease. We began with the startup of a new division transporting our customer’s product to our facility, warehousing the product, and then shipping it to the end user. The creation of a new division provided new challenges, from purchasing new equipment to hiring a workforce. Wagner took over the transportation needs with a smooth transition in January, and it has proven to be a winning partnership.
