For many businesses in Fredrikstad and the Østfold region, logistics is a time-consuming and costly challenge. Whether you run an online store, import goods from abroad, or need flexible storage – third-party logistics (3PL) can be the solution that frees up time and resources so you can focus on what you do best: running and growing your business.
What is Third-Party Logistics (3PL)?
Third-party logistics, often abbreviated as 3PL, means that you outsource all or part of your logistics to an external partner. This typically includes receiving goods, storage, order handling (pick & pack), and shipping to end customers.
Unlike building and operating your own warehouse, 3PL allows you to pay only for the space and services you actually use. For businesses with varying volumes throughout the year – such as online stores with seasonal sales – this provides enormous flexibility.
The Benefits of 3PL in Fredrikstad
Fredrikstad has a strategic location that makes the city ideal for logistics:
- Proximity to E6 – the main artery for freight transport in Norway
- Short distance to Oslo (approx. 1 hour) and Sweden's western regions
- Lower storage costs than in the capital area
- Good access to carriers like Bring, Posten and DHL
