What is a 1PL company?

1PL is a logistics method where no supply chain aspect is outsourced, and the company itself is responsible for manufacturing and delivering products to their end customers. The self-sufficient logistics service will include transportation, storage, and distribution. 

 

This setting is most suitable for the small production companies who have only local distribution.
