WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
We entered our relationship with Weber under difficult circumstances, and they worked hard to put the pieces in place to make our transition a success. The management team is willing to stay active in communication to work through any issues that arise, and our service level is excellent.
At Circle, we ran our warehousing internally for over 65 years. Making the change to a 3PL could have been extremely stressful; but Jim and the team at Weber held our hands, clearly laid out pricing and how their operation worked. Our goal was to be fully operational within 6 months from our initial conversation, and we were up and running within 4. Jim and the team never over promised but always over delivered! Our continued growth is largely due to having a logistics partner like Weber that can take whatever we throw at them!
