Retail Product Launch

Red Arrow Logistics was able to provide Google with air freight, ocean freight, truckload, and LTL service for this project. This is an ongoing project where our team provides domestic transportation for all marketing-related shipments, including eight new product rollouts to big box retailers such as Lowers, Home Depot, Costco, BJ’s Wholesale, and Sam’s Club. Red Arrow uses a hub/spoke model to ensure timely deliveries and to avoid bottlenecks at LTL cross-docks.

Project Results

By utilizing a truckload to LTL hub network strategy, Red Arrow Logistics was able to bypass multiple bottlenecks, which in turn reduced time in transit as well as touches to the freight. To date, we have executed more than 4,000 store deliveries with a 99% on-time/early rate of success. By using our extensive network of nationwide LTL partners, we are able to source capacity and diversify according to different delivery criteria, inclusive of inside delivery, delivery appointments, to rural and metro areas, etc. Being able to provide a customized delivery solution based on varied factors ensures the success of this project.

International Component

Red Arrow Logistics also provides the reverse logistics process for Pixel phone spare parts which help service Google products worldwide, along with the importation of marketing materials sourced and manufactured overseas. Strategic partnerships with transportation providers enable the company to get the capacity and rates needed to get products into the DFW-based warehouse. From there they are inter-connected with outbound transportation to international destinations like Singapore, the UK, Netherlands, Australia, and the Czech Republic.

This international reverse logistics program is successful due to:

• Time-sensitive, large-scale product deployments to major US-based retailers.
• Extensive network of both domestic and international partners.
• International capacity with highly secure partners to ensure timely delivery of goods within the customer’s specified window.

Red Arrow Logistics uses its vast partner network to provide the best rates with a customized delivery solution to get goods where they need to be when they need to be there.
