"The nitch we are going after is to find companies like yourself, where you sell your product to someone who might be upgrading their old rack or if someone offers you an oddball type rack that you would not normally take, but have you keep in mind that this is the type of product we can move off-shore, you can make money on both ends, sell them your upgraded rack, then sell us your trade-in rack to ship offshore. We ship 10 to 20, 45’ containers a month to our offshore DC facility in the Philippines. Please contact us on large buys, hard to move product and inventory overstock items, if you are looking for a quick turn-around in product."
-- CEO/President/Owner, Wholesale, Sacramento, CA
