Meet K&B Panels, a European company with a rapidly growing line of wall decor panels. The company’s mission is to provide an alternative to traditional brick and stone masonry. Instead, they offer decorative wall panels that are easy to install for a fraction of the cost.
K&B Panels describes its products as “lightweight 3D wall panels designed to replicate real brick, stone, slate, wood or marble” that provide “the look of masonry without the weight, mess or cost of the real thing.” The company offers a faster, more affordable option to traditional masonry while maintaining the same warmth and charm. These wall decor panels can be used in both indoor and outdoor spaces around your home.
K&B Panels recently expanded into the United States, and Lake City Logistics is excited to partner with them as their third-party logistics (3PL) company, helping supply their products to customers across the country.
Lake City Logistics first connected with K&B Panels through a platform that matches businesses with logistics providers. K&B Panels was looking for a quality third-party logistics partner to handle its U.S. operations, and we were a great fit.
We accomplished in days and weeks what could take many logistics companies months to complete. For example, just six weeks into our partnership, we had received inventory, integrated it into our systems, and were ready to ship to customers throughout the United States.
Lake City Logistics provides order fulfillment, transportation, inventory management, ecommerce integration, and other logistics services to K&B Panels.
What sets us apart from other third-party logistics providers, and why are we a strong partner for international companies like K&B Panels?
One of the biggest reasons is our responsiveness. We have the ability to move quickly, integrating systems and bringing inventory online almost immediately. Our customer service is unmatched because of our close-knit team, and Lake City Logistics owners, Ryan Robertson and Cory Kindig, remain actively involved in day-to-day business operations and customer relationships.
Another reason why our logistics team is the best is our convenient Midwest location. We can reach 70% of the United States on the ground in two days or less. Our warehousing in North Central Indiana makes us a favorite for truckers. Unlike distribution in a big city, such as Chicago, drivers do not have to fight traffic when transporting goods to and from our location.
Choosing a third-party logistics provider is an important decision, especially when expanding into a new country. Jake Bond, CEO of K&B Panels, says Lake City Logistics quickly earned his team’s confidence:
“Picking a 3PL partner in a country you’ve never operated in is a horrible task. You’re trusting someone with your product and your customer relationships before you’ve even met them. Lake City took that risk away from day one,“ said Bond. “They’ve handled everything from panels leaving our factory in Turkey to arriving at our warehouse in Indiana without a single issue, and they go the extra mile every time. We feel genuinely blessed we found them!”
Getting logistics right is essential to building customer loyalty and maintaining positive reviews. As an experienced 3PL provider, Lake City Logistics helps businesses, including K&B Panels, create a reliable customer experience that drives repeat business.
