In a year that shocked the world, very few businesses managed to evade the negative effects of lockdowns, sick employees, and widespread uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In spring 2020, supply chain challenges impacted 94% of the Fortune 1000. By March 2020, Amazon Prime Two-Day Shipping became Four-Week Shipping, and empty shelves plagued grocery stores around the world. An invisible and unforeseen virus derailed even the largest supply chains, sending ocean shipping schedule reliability down to a 10-year low by January 2021.
As supply chains continue to adapt to a post-pandemic world, the warehousing industry is undergoing its own growing pains to meet the needs of the 21st century economy. Businesses of all sizes, from the garage start-up to international conglomerates, are expecting more from their 3PL (3rd Party Logistics) warehouse providers than just a storage space. Yet low vacancy rates are causing warehousing prices to spike, even for those offering only the most basic services.
