TexAmericas Center expands logistics support
TEXARKANA — TexAmericas Center, a business complex just west of here, announced Wednesday it now offers third party logistics (3PL) services to assist companies with inventory management, warehousing, and fulfillment needs.
To lead this program, TAC hired logistics/operations expert John Sesler as its vice president of Logistics. Tenants now can offload these specialized tasks to TAC.
Sesler has 35 years of experience in logistics with large international organizations
as well as small businesses looking to accelerate their growth.
He has worked with manufacturing leaders and governmental organizations.
Prior to TAC, Sesler spent 15 years as the General Manager of Logistics Operations for WWWilliams Logistics, Inc., where he was responsible for nationwide operations. Previously, he was an operations manager for Walsh Distribution and the corporate distribution manager for Aalf’s Manufacturing Inc.
Sesler’s “three decades of experience, combined with our flexible approach to 3PL, makes TexAmericas Center a leading source for growing regional companies and national companies looking to relocate or enhance operations with an additional distribution site,” said Scott Norton, TexAmericas Center Executive Director/CEO.
In 2019, the global 3PL market was valued at $1 billion and is projected to reach $1.7 billion by 2027, according to Allied Market Research. Additionally, COVID-19 has enhanced the demand for more robust and responsive logistics with more consumers and businesses wanting just-in-time delivery of products shipped directly to front doors.
“Third party logistics is one of the biggest game changers for companies who see their growth stunted by the operational challenges often associated with warehousing needs and fulfillment strategies,” Norton said.
TAC’s 3PL services are designed to provide benefits to companies of all sizes.
“The benefit of working with TexAmericas Center centers around our flexibility and adaptability to meet unique business needs,” Sesler said. “We help manage upfront investment, apply best practices to operations, and connect all the dots necessary to help them take that next step in their growth.”
