Columbus, OH—June 2, 2025 —Food Logistics, the only publication exclusively dedicated to covering the movement of product through the global cold food supply chain, named FST Logistics as one of the winners of this year’s Top 3PL & Cold Storage Providers award. This award recognizes leading third-party logistics and cold storage providers.
“Many of today’s 3PL providers are challenged with rising fuel costs, the race against electrification, ensuring driver safety, complying with ever-changing regulations and more.
But, thanks to the implementation of emerging technologies, cutting-edge transportation management solutions and end-to-end visibility solutions, 3PLs in the cold food chain space continue to keep on truckin’,” says Marina Mayer, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive and co-founder of the Women in Supply Chain Forum. “In the same token, cold storage providers are challenged with slowdown in inventory levels and meeting ‘audit-ready’ mandates. Yet, at the same time, they are still implementing robotics, wearables and multi-temperature solutions to better meet ever-changing demands of the temperature-sensitive market.”
FST Logistics’ ranking among the top 3PL and cold‑storage providers is well deserved given its focused, high‑quality temperature-controlled capabilities. With five strategically located cold‑storage facilities and a dedicated fleet of refrigerated trucks, FST delivers flexible, coast‑to‑coast coverage without overextending its network. Their proprietary FST Insight™ platform offers real‑time inventory visibility, order and billing analytics, and exception management. This empowers customers to make data‑driven decisions. FST also specializes in retail consolidation, optimizing multi-supplier shipments into single, store-ready deliveries to reduce costs and complexity. Combined with integrated transportation management and a national carrier team, FST ensures reliable temperature control and streamlined logistics, making its top‑tier recognition a natural fit.
