Newark's logistics infrastructure handles more freight than almost any point on the East Coast. Build software that keeps operations moving at port speed.
The Newark Fulfillment Challenge
Distribution centers in the Newark area face a unique set of demands: container shipments from Port Newark arriving unpredictably based on vessel schedules, retail replenishment orders with strict compliance requirements, and last-mile delivery challenges into the most congested metropolitan area in North America. Generic WMS solutions rarely handle this combination well.
