Retail
From fines to transportation costs to supply chain disruption, retail has its challenges for manufacturers—and Dot Foods is here to solve them.
We can ship food and non-food products to customer distribution centers across grocery, drug, mass, dollar, and convenience segments. At every step of the process, you’ll maintain control over your relationship with your customers.
Our consolidation model saves you warehouse space and transportation costs and can help minimize on-time fines. We’ll pick up products from your manufacturing plant in full truckloads, house them in our distribution centers, and ship them in consolidated, less-than-truckload orders to your customers.
We have the business model, services, and solutions to grow your retail business.
