About Vincent Gulisano

I’ve been doing this logistics thing for 30+ years. That experience, coupled with the explosion of online sales, led me to an exciting challenge: creating the engine room for the online sales revolution - reliable warehousing and product fulfillment infrastructures that every eCommerce company needs, but too few manage well. So, I created B2C 3PL Advisors to bring together the best and brightest 3PLs, customers and partners to build something great, unencumbered by red tape and company politics. Together with my close partners and my Chief Culture Officer - Ike the English Mastiff, we have fun, every day, doing what we love and helping companies grow.What gets me most excited is watching companies go from start-up to market leader, and knowing that I, and more importantly our team played a small part in making that happen. How did I get here? Read my experience for the details. What’s more important is where I’m going. And that’s creating a bigger and better engine room. One that allows company leaders to DREAM BIG, while we take care of everything after the click.

   Jan 2018 — Present · Scottsdale, AZ, US

   I am an international executive with a breadth of successful commercial, operational and executive management experience within the global logistics industry. My comprehensive background is in warehousing/distribution, domestic transportation, supply chain technology, international consolidation and forwarding services (air and ocean) – in the U.S. as well as Asia, Europe, and Latin America.I am well versed in logistics management and over a 30-year career has held various positions such as President, CEO, Chief Customer Officer, Executive Vice President, COO, Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Engineering, and many various direct operating positions as well. Those roles have been at organizations from tech logistics and B2C fulfillment startups to billion-dollar logistics companies. In almost every instance the challenge has been to retool an organization to address shifting strategies and market dynamics.Most recently, for the last 8 years, I have has focused on the area of B2C (Business to Consumer) Fulfillment, learning the intricacies and nuances of direct to consumer fulfillment vs. traditional big box retail distribution. This high growth segment of warehousing is ripe with opportunity as online sales continue to increase each year. The challenges that B2B 3PLs face are shifting from a large warehouse management approach to an “order production” approach to running an operation. This requires some changes to the way they should approach the business, both operationally and with the prospective customer.Let’s discuss how.
