For more than 100 years a top department store, catalogue and on-line retailer, JCPenney based its selection of APL and APL Logistics on, among other things:
- customer service,
- data accuracy, and
- close integration between APL and APL Logistics.
"We view them as one company," said Inga Kerutis, International Carrier Relations Manager for JCPenney.
Added APL Logistics President Brian Lutt: "By integrating transportation and logistics services we can simplify a global customer's supply chain and better manage their costs. We are pleased that JCPenney finds value in that approach."
APL Logistics provides supply chain management services to many top global shippers. It manages a large portion of the cargo JCPenney imports from Asia and Central America. Much of that cargo is carried by APL. APL Logistics also provides on-site logistics support to JCPenney.
"Excellent service is critical to our success," said Lutt. "To be recognized for it by a customer the size and strength of JCPenney is especially rewarding."
