Discussion:
Warehouse and 3PL

Can anyone tell me which is the better option for my eCommerce store?
I have an eCommerce store for apparel, so my business has been growing for a couple of months now, so I want to rent out a commercial warehouse, then I heard about 3PL warehouses. So now am a bit confused, that is do I need to rent a warehouse by myself and take care of the shipping and fulfillment by myself or outsource it to a 3PL company so they will take care of it. I heard that for a growing business 3PL is the best choice there is. So can any help me out, please?

If a 3PL Company is worth as it says, I was considering this company referred by my friend, If anyone has past experience with them please do share it.

Fact of the week
In Germany, the 9th of November is sometimes called Schicksalstag, the "Day of Fate" because it has been the day for several major historical events, including the horrors of Kristallnacht in 1938 and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
