Why is RIM the trusted logistics partner for retail companies?
We specialize in all aspects of retail supply chain.
Not only do we offer end-to-end logistics for your direct-to-retail needs, but we have deep expertise in OTIF, provide the most high-touch white glove service out there, and have extensive systems in place to reduce chargebacks.
We have the ability and willingness to pivot.
We thoroughly understand the highly dynamic nature of retail supply chain! If your in-store dates shift, a problem occurs with a supplier, a product goes viral, or anything else, we can pivot on the fly to make sure your shipments get to your stores or customers on time and in full.
We customize our solutions to meet your specific needs.
Every company’s supply chain is unique — especially in retail. That’s why we architect highly customized and strategically selected solutions that are 100% tailored to your specific needs, timelines, and destinations.
Technology that supports retail supply chains
System Integration
Our technology capabilities allow you to integrate your company’s ERP and e-commerce platforms with our order, warehouse and trucking management systems via API or EDI. This allows for instant supply chain visibility and operational alignment with less bottlenecks and mistakes.
Vertical Lift Modules
We have four Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs) that create significantly faster order fulfillment, near-perfect order accuracy, and enhanced security for high-value items, while also allowing you to house a larger variety and volume of your SKUs in one location.
Horizontal Carousel
Our Horizontal Carousel ensures lightning-fast order fulfillment, near-perfect picking accuracy, and faster delivery times. By bringing inventory directly to the picker, our carousel eliminates wasted walking and searching time across a warehouse.
Automated Parcel Dimensioning
We utilize automated parcel dimensioning to ensure accurate, transparent shipping rates, prevent surprise fees at the door, and guarantee that orders are efficiently packed in correctly sized boxes.
