Interworld Freight offers solutions from simple pallet-level ambient and temperature controlled storage through complex distribution, crossdocking, kitting, pick & pack, and ecommerce fulfillment & distribution.
We provide custom-designed consolidation and transloading services to help boost your supply chain performance, and if your business needs the economic benefits of inventory storage in a free trade zone, our Miami warehouse is at your disposal, or we can arrange FTZ warehousing for you in other locations across the United States.








Interworld provides complete fulfillment and distribution services for ecommerce businesses and traditional brick-and-mortar stores. We own and operate warehouse facilities where we take care of all fulfillment processes.

Our crossdock teams have years of experience in planning and handling the flow of goods between inbound and outbound trucks, thus eliminating the need to hold and manage inventory in storage.

When you need to consolidate several consignments of inbound goods to create full truckload shipments, we can take care of the planning and execution to ensure maximum consolidation efficiency.
Interworld has been providing warehousing, fulfillment, and crossdocking services for our customers since 1992, and our logisticians have developed solutions for a panoply of challenges. Our fulfillment warehouses are technology-driven and support wholesale, distribution, traditional retail, ecommerce, and omnichannel operations.
Because the needs of shippers differ widely, we offer warehousing, crossdocking, and consolidation resources as part of an end-to-end supply chain solution, integrated with our ocean, air, and road freight services, or as standalone options. We provide services for all commercial sectors, including specialized ambient and temperature-controlled warehouse and logistics solutions for a broad range of industries.
Our experts are always on hand to help you meet your warehousing and fulfillment needs, so why not reach out to us for specialist advice?
The use of external warehouse storage solutions is becoming an ever more popular approach for enterprises that consider marketing and sales, not warehousing and logistics, to be their core business functions. Warehouse fulfillment service providers offer secure and organized space for businesses to hold inventory, with the technology, expertise, and resources to execute the entire fulfillment operation, leaving the customers to enjoy first-class inventory management without excessive capital expenditure.
Last-mile delivery represents the largest proportion of supply chain expenditure for many retailers and similar sales-oriented businesses. Warehouse fulfillment providers can help enterprises to reduce these costs by allowing them to store inventory closer to their customers, shifting the transportation mileage from outbound delivery to more economical inbound logistics. This also reduces last-mile delivery lead times and distribution costs and helps to improve service for the end customers.
Fulfillment warehouses provide retailers and other businesses with the ability to respond rapidly to demand fluctuations and other forces acting on the need to scale. Often offering capacity on demand, warehouse fulfillment services allow their customers to manage demand peaks and troughs, increase scale as their enterprises grow, and even to downsize operations if circumstances dictate.

If you want to focus your ecommerce business resources on stellar sales and marketing, you don’t need the distractions of fulfillment execution. Or maybe you just want to augment your in-house logistics operation with a scalable solution, perhaps for a specific geography or to help you manage seasonality. Whatever your ecommerce warehousing and logistics challenges may be, our fulfillment warehouse facilities and their expert teams can help you overcome them.
Our fulfillment services portfolio is comprehensive, starting at simple inventory storage and extending all the way to complex, customized solutions that integrate seamlessly with your sales and order management processes.
At Interworld Freight, we know that your inventory is the life blood of your business. That’s why we dedicate sophisticated technology and highly skilled logistics practitioners to taking care of it on your behalf. There’s little point in outsourcing warehousing if your service provider can’t manage your inventory more effectively than you can, so we maintain capabilities to equal–or to better, even those of our most logistics-savvy customers.
