E-Commerce Fulfillment Services Built for Omnichannel Growth

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is the backbone of modern supply chain communication. It allows GLC Distribution to connect directly with your shopping carts, marketplaces, and retail partners across all major eCommerce platforms — enabling real-time data exchange without manual input, spreadsheets, or delays.

With EDI in place, purchase orders, advance shipping notices, invoices, and inventory updates flow automatically between systems. This means fewer errors, faster order processing, and complete visibility across every channel you sell on — whether that's Amazon, Walmart, Target, or your own DTC store.

EDI also supports omnichannel commerce, keeping your inventory synced across platforms so you never oversell, miss an order, or lose track of stock. The result is a smarter, leaner operation that scales with your business and keeps your retail partners happy.

Amazon's fulfillment centers are not long-term storage solutions — and when inventory sits too long, sellers face aging fees, storage limits, or the need to liquidate or return products. GLC Distribution offers a complete FBA removal service to handle exactly these situations efficiently and cost-effectively.

When Amazon initiates a removal order or you choose to pull inventory back, we coordinate the receipt of your returned goods at our warehouse. From there, we can inspect, repackage, relabel, and return items to sellable condition — or store them until you decide the next step.

Whether you need to recover stranded inventory, avoid long-term storage fees, or simply reposition products for a different sales channel, GLC gives you a reliable place to send your FBA removals and a team that knows what to do with them when they arrive.

Cross-docking is one of the most efficient ways to move high-volume freight without the cost and time of traditional warehousing. At GLC Distribution, inbound shipments arrive at our facility and are immediately sorted, consolidated, and transferred to outbound transportation — minimizing the time your cargo spends sitting still.

Transloading takes this a step further by moving freight between different modes of transport — from ocean container to domestic truck, or from rail to last-mile carrier. This is especially valuable for importers who need to break down large international shipments and redistribute them efficiently across the U.S.

Our strategically located facilities in Los Angeles and Chicago allow us to serve major import gateways and inland distribution points, keeping your supply chain moving without unnecessary touches, delays, or storage costs eating into your margins.

Getting your product onto a retail shelf is only half the challenge — it has to arrive there shelf-ready, compliant with the retailer's specifications, and presented in a way that sells. GLC Distribution's retail packout services prepare your products to meet the exact requirements of major retailers, club stores, and promotional programs.

Our team handles everything from assembling display-ready shipper cases and applying retail-specific labeling to building promotional bundles and end-cap displays. Whether you're launching a new product, preparing for a seasonal campaign, or fulfilling a club store order with unique pack configurations, we execute the packout to spec — every time.

We also support in-store merchandising programs, working with your team to ensure product presentation is consistent across locations. From prep to placement, GLC makes sure your brand shows up on the shelf exactly the way it was designed to.

The final mile is the last leg of the delivery journey — and often the most critical one. It's where customer expectations are either met or broken. GLC Distribution provides flexible final mile delivery solutions designed to get your products to their destination on time, in perfect condition, and at a cost that works for your operation.

We work with a network of carriers to offer multiple shipping options and rate tiers, so you can match delivery speed to your budget and your customer's expectations. Whether you're shipping single parcels, pallets to retail locations, or bulk orders to distribution centers, we route each shipment through the most efficient path available.

With our warehouses in Los Angeles and Chicago positioned close to major highways and distribution corridors, we reduce transit times and improve delivery reliability across both coasts and the Midwest. Your customers get their orders when they expect them — and that builds the kind of trust that keeps them coming back.

Inventory management is the foundation of a healthy supply chain. Without it, businesses run into stock-outs that cost sales, excess inventory that ties up cash, and overselling that damages customer trust. GLC Distribution's inventory management system gives you real-time visibility and control over your stock at every stage — from the moment it arrives at our warehouse to the moment it ships to your customer.

Our Warehouse Management System (WMS) tracks every unit by SKU, lot, and location. You always know what you have, where it is, and when you need to replenish. We generate regular inventory reports and can set automatic low-stock alerts so you're never caught off guard by a surge in demand or a slow-moving SKU.

Effective inventory management also means reducing the cost of carrying too much stock while ensuring you always have enough to fulfill orders. GLC works with you to establish the right reorder points and safety stock levels so your operation runs lean without running short.

Kitting is the process of grouping individual products together into a single packaged unit ready to ship as one item. It's a powerful way to increase average order value, simplify fulfillment, and reduce per-unit shipping costs. GLC Distribution's kitting services handle the assembly, packaging, and labeling of product bundles to your exact specifications.

Whether you're creating gift sets, promotional bundles, retail multi-packs, or product trial kits, our team assembles each kit with care and consistency. We work from your packaging guidelines and can accommodate custom inserts, branded tissue, stickers, and other unboxing elements that elevate the customer experience.

For brands running subscription box programs, we manage the entire recurring fulfillment cycle — from inventory receipt and kit assembly to pick, pack, and ship on a schedule that matches your subscription cadence. Your subscribers get a consistent, high-quality experience every time their box arrives, and you get a fulfillment partner who treats every box like it's going to your best customer.

In supply chain management, a mislabeled product can mean a delayed shipment, a retailer chargeback, or an Amazon rejection. Accurate labeling is not optional — it's the language your cargo speaks to every system it passes through, from your warehouse to the retailer's receiving dock or Amazon's fulfillment center.

GLC Distribution provides comprehensive labeling services for products, cartons, pallets, and shipments. We apply barcodes, FNSKU labels, GS1-compliant labels, country-of-origin markings, and any retailer-specific labeling requirements your customers demand. Every label is verified for accuracy before it leaves our facility.

Whether you need labels applied to individual units, master cartons, or full pallet loads, our team handles the work with the precision and speed your supply chain requires. We also maintain labeling records for traceability, so you always have a clear audit trail if questions arise downstream.

Pick and pack is at the heart of every order fulfillment operation. When a customer places an order, our team picks the right products from warehouse inventory, packs them securely and according to your specifications, and prepares the shipment for carrier pickup. It sounds simple — but done well, it's the difference between a smooth customer experience and a costly return.

At GLC Distribution, we have experienced fulfillment teams at each of our locations who are trained to pack products correctly — whether that means fragile item handling, specific carton configurations, branded packaging inserts, or retailer compliance packing requirements. Every order is picked accurately and packed to protect your product in transit.

We also offer flexible pickup options. Our trucks can collect your cargo from your facility, your supplier, or wherever your goods are located. Combined with our carrier network, this gives you a truly end-to-end solution from the moment inventory is ready to the moment it's delivered.

Quality control is not a step you can afford to skip — especially when products are coming from overseas manufacturers or passing through multiple hands before reaching your customer. A single batch of defective or non-compliant products can generate returns, damage your brand reputation, and create costly compliance issues with retailers or marketplaces.

GLC Distribution offers product testing and inspection services to verify that what arrives at our warehouse matches what you ordered. Our team conducts inbound inspections based on your quality specifications — checking quantities, dimensions, labeling accuracy, packaging integrity, and product condition before your inventory is processed or shipped out.

We document findings with detailed inspection reports so you have a clear record of product quality at every stage. If issues are found, we flag them immediately so you can work with your supplier before defective units reach your customers. It's a proactive layer of quality assurance that protects your brand and your bottom line.

Managing shipping on your own — juggling carriers, negotiating rates, tracking shipments, and resolving exceptions — takes time and resources that most growing businesses can't afford to spend. GLC Distribution takes shipping off your plate entirely, handling inbound and outbound freight so you can focus on growing your business instead of managing logistics.

We receive your inventory, process your orders, select the right carrier and service level for each shipment, and get your products moving. Our relationships with major domestic carriers allow us to access competitive rates that individual shippers rarely qualify for — savings that go directly back to your operation.

Every shipment is tracked from origin to delivery, with proactive exception management when delays or issues arise. Whether you're shipping B2C parcels, B2B pallets, or full truckloads to retail distribution centers, GLC provides the infrastructure and the expertise to do it right — on time, every time, with best-in-class customer service behind every order.

Where you store your inventory matters as much as how you manage it. GLC Distribution operates warehouse facilities in Los Angeles and Chicago — two of the most strategically important logistics hubs in the United States. Los Angeles puts you steps away from the nation's busiest seaport complex, shortening the distance between your import container and your customer. Chicago connects you to major rail corridors, interstate highways, and the distribution networks that serve the entire Midwest and beyond.

Our facilities are equipped to handle a wide range of product types and storage configurations — from bulk pallet storage for high-volume importers to organized bin and shelf storage for eCommerce SKU-intensive operations. We maintain clean, secure, climate-appropriate environments and operate under strict receiving and put-away procedures to keep your inventory accurate from day one.

With GLC as your warehousing partner, you gain flexible storage capacity that scales with your business — no long-term leases, no underutilized square footage, and no separate contracts to manage across multiple providers. Your inventory is in the right place, managed by the right team, ready to ship the moment an order comes in.
