The logistics services provider will help retailers with store planning and design, as well as rolling out new seasonal displays and remodeling stores.
Pilot Freight Services said it will step up its presence among retailers by offering services that manage and coordinate the unique logistics requirements related to store planning and design, as well as rolling out new seasonal displays and remodeling stores.
“We’ve had a lot of success working with retailers — including a number of major brand names — on this type of work, and decided it made sense to put together a more formal offering so we can continue to expand our work in this area,” said Richard Phillips, Pilot’s CEO, in a statement.
Pilot explained that “the retail business requires flexibility and customization on the part of the logistics provider, as timelines for deliveries are dictated by a number of factors, including when shoppers won’t be in the store. This often requires coordination with multiple parties, including store planning managers, retail design firms, and property and store managers, which Pilot handles on behalf of its customers.”
