About Us

Our business is about serving you, but here you can learn a bit more about us. Here you'll learn more about our humble beginnings, our values, and our mission.

20+ Years of Building Trusted Partnerships

The R&S Difference

Everyone says “partnership is important,” but for us, business is more than just signing a contract. It’s vital that our relationships are built on trust and solutions that will last. We are young people in an old person’s game, which makes us hungry for the supply chain problems that don’t fit in the box (pun intended).

Sure, we can handle the straightforward warehousing and fulfillment operations, and we’re going to do so extremely well, but we can also take the hard stuff.

We’re problem solvers and logistics experts with a passion for taking on the projects no one else will.

Our Mission Statement

R&S pursues trust with our employees and customers so that you can focus on what matters, and we can grow together.
