Also learn how the Manager of Global Logistics and Trade Compliance, on-boarded the WI TEU Platform in 2016 to manage imports, deconsolidate TEUs's at the WI International Process Center, located in Joliet, IL. After the container is processed, goods are transferred to a 53' trailer for transport to Sheboygan, WI. Products are palletized and positioned for immediate inventory placement upon arrival. Also learn how the WI TEU Platform helped Vollrath replace their private fleet with the asset-based carrier that serves as COC for the WI TEU Platform.
