The Growing Need for Kansas City 3PL Services
Kansas City Warehousing
Kansas City is the most centrally-located major U.S. market. As the focal point of movement and distribution of goods, KC is perfectly positioned in the nation’s heartland as a centralized inland logistics port, and is experiencing record growth in the demand for warehousing, manufacturing, and distribution.
The KC metro area ranks among top ten growth markets for big-box warehouses and distribution centers. Over the past 10 years the Kansas City market delivered more than 65.5 million sq. ft. of new industrial space. This growth is due in large part to the region’s abundant, multi-modal transportation network.
Fulfillment in KC
Kansas City has experienced a recent surge in e-commerce activity, leading to an increased demand for efficient and accurate order fulfillment services. Additionally, major retailers have a presence in or near Kansas City and operate distribution centers in the region to fulfill online and in-store orders.
The Kansas City area is home to several 3PL companies and distribution centers that specialize in order fulfillment. These providers serve a wide range of industries, including e-commerce, retail, and manufacturing.
Freight in KC
Called the “Crossroads of America” due to its strategic location in the central United States, Kansas City serves as a major transportation and logistics hub. Located in the middle of the continental United States, Kansas City has always been an important transportation hub for shippers.
Freight moves by multiple transportation modes in the Kansas City District. A bustling-yet-uncongested nexus of four major Interstate highways provide highly appealing e-commerce access to 85% of the U.S. population by truck within two days, and 99% within three days. KC has 30% more interstate miles per capita than any other US city.
What makes Kansas City such a logistics heavyweight?
- It’s located at the intersection of four of the nation’s major interstate highways (I-35, I-70, I-29, I-49).
- KC is the largest rail center in the U.S. by tonnage.
