Currently, third-party logistics (3PL) consists of three main segments, divided by type of service, mode of transportation and by industry. Specifically, the type of 3PL service includes dedicated contract shipping; management of domestic and international transport; warehousing; distribution and some other types of services. Modes of transport include rail, road, waterway and air. The 3PL sectors are mainly aimed at life-related industries such as technology, cars, retail, necessities, food and healthcare products...

In particular, the future 3PL logistics trend is predicted to increase the use of artificial intelligence (AI). This modern technology is increasingly widely used by logistics enterprises in the industry and retail units. In addition to optimizing transportation routes and managing fleets, AI also supports intelligent classification of packages by size, weight ... help businesses save time, costs and labor effectively.

For example, Verte, an e-commerce services company based in the US, has launched an omnichannel supply chain platform integrating AI technology for retailers and 3PL logistics service providers. Verte's technology solutions provide real-time supply chain insights.

The results are analyzed based on centralized data to ensure the transparency of the supply chain. The platform will provide aggregated data solutions to solve inventory-related problems, meet customer needs, and enable retailers, store shippers, 3PL logistics businesses, and carriers to operate more efficiently.
