There's nothing like standing beside you as you open the doors to your new business or reveal your new expansion. That's why we offer our members our expertise and assistance with hosting grand opening and expansion ceremonies. Thank you to our Ribbon Cuttings sponsor, Paragon Bank for helping us support local businesses like you.
Today, we are happy to be celebrating War Logistics on their grand opening in Memphis.
Why Memphis?
Memphis is the perfect location for any company looking for warehousing & distribution. We have the ability to find the right provider in warehousing and labor. The over the road and LTL rates are affordable due to the volume of freight in this area. Rail yards are also a great tool used to control transportation cost. We have the ability to grow with our current and future customer base without the cost of moving our entire operation.

We do not chase every account in Memphis – targeting the right businesses for our model. We work and target only the customers we can add value to. Our flexibility to adjust to all requirements and request made by our customers. Paired with over delivering what is expected, has not only gained us double and triple growth each year but many of our customers too.
What are some key things that allowed your business to grow?
Building and maintaining relationships with key people in business such as the Webster’s (Sytlecraft Home Collections) to learn from. Maintaining long term partnerships, as well as adding new business with the right customers.
My employee base and management team. Without them, I would not have a business to grow.

If your business is opening a new location, what are the reasons for this change?
War Logistics, INC was awarded as the sole US location for C-ECO/CoremanNet, a German based global customer. C-ECO/CoremanNet choose War Logistics, INC to provide Reverse Logistics and warehouse services of automotive cores for the US. War Logistics, INC would like to thank C-ECO/CoremanNet for the trust and commitment they put in our company as we look forward to a long partnership that will allow both companies to grow.
How will this change affect your organization’s mission or vision for the future?
Our mission will not change, only our footprint and available resources. This will continue to add layers of stability and growth within our company. This new business will assist War Logistics, INC to continue our double and triple growth year-over-year since our inception in 2011.
