Worst Warehouse Nightmares •

How We Stopped the Bad Guy

Bad Guy

Perimeter Global Logistics (PGL) is a 3PL that uses Deposco to untangle risk in serving their client, Spirit Halloween. Standing up inventory operations for 1,450 pop-up stores the size of a Walmart across the U.S., in under 3 months, is quite the hairy operation.

With quick stand-up, reliable system connectivity, easy onboarding, 100% visibility, and wicked-fast workflows, Deposco’s warehouse management software (WMS) made it happen. PGL can easily manage inbound and outbound shipments, sort kits for the appropriate stores, enter inventory in real time, and ship orders so fast, it’s scary.
