  • EZDC 3PL Named Racklify’s Warehouse of the Week


    EZDC 3PL has earned this week’s Racklify Warehouse of the Week spotlight, emerging as a standout third-party logistics partner for growing brands. Fresh off a feature on Racklify News titled Not All 3PLs Are Created Equal — Why Customer Service Is the Dealbreaker, Dave Gulas EZDC3PL the Kentucky-based 3PL is gaining national visibility for its innovative services and merchant-first philosophy. Founded in 2022 by industry veterans (including co-founder Dave Gulas, who brought two decades of pharmaceutical distribution experience to the venture), EZDC 3PL has quickly built a reputation for operational excellence, customer-centric service, and unique capabilities that set it apart from the crowd. In an industry where many providers focus only on the biggest clients, EZDC is proving that a nimble, tech-driven 3PL can put merchants first and still excel across the board.


    Innovation in Fulfillment Services


    EZDC 3PL is redefining what a modern 3PL can offer, especially for emerging e-commerce and omnichannel merchants. The company operates a growing national network of state-of-the-art fulfillment centers and strategically located warehouses (with facilities in both Kentucky and Maryland) to serve clients with speed and efficiency. Rather than adhering to “one-size-fits-all” solutions, EZDC tailors its logistics strategies to each client’s needs – an approach Racklify noted as a key differentiator. “What sets EZDC apart is their customer-first approach. They work closely with businesses to design tailored logistics strategies, ensuring every client’s unique needs are met,” Racklify reported. This innovative, flexible model means EZDC can handle everything from high-volume order surges to seasonal inventory swings seamlessly.


    Behind these services is a culture of continuous improvement and technology adoption. EZDC was built with a forward-looking mindset, applying fulfillment technology and creative logistics solutions to give smaller brands an edge. For example, the team has embraced a “tier 1” warehouse management software and integrated it with major sales channels and marketplaces. This tech-enabled approach allows real-time inventory visibility and smooth multichannel order flow. (EZDC’s systems natively integrate with platforms like Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, eBay, and more.) By investing early in top-tier technology, EZDC ensures that even growing brands can leverage enterprise-grade fulfillment tools without the usual complexity or cost barrier. The result is an omnichannel fulfillment service that competes with much larger 3PL operations – an innovation in itself for a young company.


    Merchant-First Philosophy and Customer Focus


    Perhaps the most defining aspect of EZDC 3PL is its merchant-first philosophy. In an era when many 3PLs “prioritize volume over value, turning away growing e-commerce brands unless they hit high minimums,” EZDC takes the opposite approach. “At EZDC 3PL, we believe brands deserve a fulfillment partner that grows with them—not one that turns them away,” Gulas has explained. This ethos is evident in how EZDC treats every client – whether a startup or an established retailer – as a priority. The team prides itself on personalized service and exceptionally fast responsiveness. In fact, EZDC explicitly frames its mission around helping e-commerce brands scale by “offering timely & accurate order fulfillment” and “providing personal service with quick response time,” all while keeping costs manageable.


    This customer-centric focus isn’t just lip service; it shows up in day-to-day operations and client feedback. EZDC works closely with merchants to understand their business cycles, then proactively adapts to meet those needs. Need a custom kitting project turned around quickly? A batch of influencer orders handled specially? An unexpected spike in orders shipped out on time? EZDC’s team makes it happen with a “yes, we can” attitude. Racklify’s recent coverage highlighted that EZDC “delivers solutions that businesses can rely on,” whether it’s handling peak-season volume or smoothing out complex fulfillment requirements. By emphasizing open communication and flexibility, EZDC has cultivated high trust with its clients – aligning perfectly with Racklify’s values of transparency, responsiveness, and ease of doing business.


    Technology-Driven Operations


    At the core of EZDC’s operational strength is a robust, technology-driven infrastructure. The company employs tier-1 warehouse management systems and automation tools to maximize accuracy and speed. Every order flows through integrated software that coordinates inventory across channels and guides warehouse staff through optimized picking, packing, and shipping steps. Because of this, EZDC boasts performance stats on par with much larger players – including a 99.8% order accuracy rate in fulfillment. Orders are turned around fast: inbound stock is typically checked in within ~6 hours of arriving, and outgoing orders ship with an average delivery speed of just about 3 days nationwide. Such metrics reflect a commitment to operational excellence rarely seen in smaller 3PLs.


    The technology focus also extends to client-facing benefits. EZDC’s online portal gives merchants real-time visibility into their inventory and orders, and it connects seamlessly via API/EDI to popular shopping carts and marketplaces. This means merchants can plug into EZDC’s logistics network without missing a beat – sales on Shopify or Amazon flow directly to the warehouse, and tracking info flows back to customers, all without manual intervention. By leveraging advanced software and integration, EZDC eliminates the typical bottlenecks and errors in fulfillment. It also continually explores new tech (from analytics dashboards to potential AI-driven forecasting) to help clients optimize their supply chain. In short, EZDC’s use of cutting-edge technology isn’t just for show; it directly translates into speed, accuracy, and transparency that benefit their merchant clients every day.


    Unique Capabilities and Differentiators


    Beyond great service and tech, EZDC 3PL offers a range of unique capabilities that differentiate it from the pack. One standout is their ability to handle specialized fulfillment needs. With over 20 years of prior experience in regulated pharmaceutical distribution on the team, EZDC operates a temperature-controlled warehouse for products like supplements or perishable goods. This means they can accommodate goods that many mid-sized 3PLs can’t, opening doors for health, beauty, and wellness brands requiring climate control. The company also has expertise in subscription box fulfillment, kitting and bundling projects, and even on-demand printing services for custom inserts or labels. This breadth of services allows EZDC to be a one-stop solution for brands with complex or niche requirements – whether it’s assembling multi-item kits, handling returns processing, or prepping products for Amazon FBA, they have it covered.


    Another differentiator is EZDC’s omnichannel logistics approach. The team is well-versed in servicing direct-to-consumer eCommerce as well as B2B retail distribution from the same inventory pools. They offer value-added services like lot tracking (important for regulated goods), freight brokerage for larger shipments, and cross-docking to speed up transfers. Few 3PLs of their size can match this versatility. Additionally, EZDC’s competitive pricing model has been a draw for smaller brands: they provide transparent, affordable rates and even pass along savings on shipping and technology to their clients. By not saddling merchants with hidden fees or inflexible contracts, they lower the barrier to entry for companies that might be outsourcing fulfillment for the first time. This combination of specialized capabilities and merchant-friendly policies underscores why EZDC 3PL “stands out from the crowd” in the 3PL landscape.


    Why EZDC 3PL Stands Out This Week


    EZDC 3PL’s recent burst of industry recognition – capped by this Warehouse of the Week honor – comes as no surprise. The company hits all the marks Racklify looks for in a standout 3PL: innovation in services, tangible operational excellence, active industry engagement, and above all an unwavering commitment to merchants’ success. Their feature on Racklify News shone a light on how not all 3PLs are created equal, and EZDC exemplifies that by excelling where many competitors falter. They’re agile yet reliable, high-tech yet human-centered. They participate in thought leadership (even sharing real-world fulfillment advice at events like SubSummit) and demonstrate transparency and trustworthiness in every interaction – qualities at the heart of Racklify’s values.


    They’re also contributing to the broader conversation around logistics and entrepreneurship. Founder Dave Gulas recently launched a podcast, Beyond Fulfillment, where he shares lessons from the front lines of e-commerce, fulfillment, and business building. It's another way EZDC gives back to the community while helping educate the next generation of sellers and operators.


    By marrying big-industry know-how with small-business empathy, EZDC 3PL has positioned itself as a 3PL partner that grows alongside its clients. This week, Racklify recognizes EZDC 3PL for its achievements and alignment with the values of our logistics community. For merchants evaluating 3PL partners, EZDC’s story is an inspiring example of a fulfillment provider doing things the right way – embracing innovation, putting customers first, and delivering results. That’s why EZDC 3PL stands out as our Warehouse of the Week, embodying the spirit of service and excellence that Racklify celebrates across the supply chain.
