Food Logistics, the only publication exclusively dedicated to covering the movement of product through the food supply chain, this week announced that DB Schenker has been named to the sixth annual list of the top 100 3PL and Cold Storage Providers in its July/August 2011 issue. Third-party logistics and cold storage providers offer a broad scope of services and capabilities that enable food companies to manage costs, increase flexibility, improve service levels and operational efficiency, and reduce capital expenditures.

“Selecting the right logistics partner to manage your supply chain is of great importance to the future of any company’s operations,” explained Katherine Doherty, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics magazine. “In the food industry, outsourcing has become a foundation of competitive advantage for many companies. We provide this list to help our readers find the best 3PLs and cold storage providers for their business.”

Food Logistics editorial staff culled through submissions from end users and solution providers to compile this year’s top 100 3PL and Cold Storage Providers listing. Final recipients are featured in the July/August issue of Food Logistics, as well as online at www.foodlogistics.com. The 100 3PL and Cold Storage Providers is not a ranking.
