Hi all,

I’m a 3 PL located just outside Chicago. We have been gaining a lot of traction with Shopify users as well as some of the other platforms. We have integrated with so many different users and with different needs. We are interested in building an app, specifically for Shopify, however, I’m looking for some feedback prior to development.

What are issues you are running into?

What pain points does your current 3PL have due to system limitations?

If you were doing it all over again, what would you do differently?

Looking for any feedback for Ware-Pak to help serve the community better and to hopefully offer a service that can create a healthy relationship for both parties. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
