What IronLink Logistics does

IronLink Logistics is a US-based third-party logistics (3PL) provider founded in 2019 as MD 3PL and rebranded in January 2023, headquartered in Ontario, California. The company operates seven warehouse facilities totaling more than 800,000 square feet of Class A storage space, with three facilities near the Port of Los Angeles/Long Beach, three near the Port of New York/New Jersey, and one near the Port of Charleston. Its service portfolio covers the full inbound-to-last-mile stack: harbor drayage, warehousing and storage, pick-and-pack fulfillment (DTC), value-added services (kitting, labeling, repackaging, quality control), cross-docking and transloading, reverse logistics, and transportation/freight delivery across FTL, LTL, expedited, and intermodal modes.

The operating model is anchored by the Da Vinci cloud-based Warehouse Management System, supplemented by native integrations with Shopify, Amazon, Walmart, Etsy, and Magento, EDI automation, and API-based ERP connectivity. IronLink reports 99% inventory accuracy, 98%+ order accuracy, and 99% on-time shipments, with same-day order fulfillment and same-day container turnaround (versus a 72-hour industry average). Two FDA-certified food-grade facilities expand its addressable verticals. The company cites customers including UNICARGO and Flexport, alongside enterprise testimonials highlighting responsive, consultative account management.

IronLink employs an enterprise field sales motion targeting large consumer brands with North American or global reach, supported by inside sales and a self-service quote portal. Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring warehousing/storage fees, per-order pick-and-pack transaction fees, drayage and freight transaction fees, and professional services for value-added and reverse logistics work. Pricing is fully custom with multi-year contract cadence and is not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held and appears to be founder-operated, with no disclosed institutional funding, M&A activity, or revenue figures in the available source material.
