What Co-Operations does

Co-Operations, Inc. is a privately-held, full-service third-party logistics (3PL) provider headquartered in Tualatin, Oregon, with a secondary warehouse facility in Atlanta, Georgia, providing bi-coastal U.S. coverage. Founded as a customer-driven fulfillment operation, the company has operated continuously for approximately 25 years and serves small to medium-sized businesses, growth-stage consumer brands, crowdfunded ventures, and enterprise retail customers. Core service lines include customer-driven (B2C/open-case) fulfillment, retail-driven (case- and pallet-level B2B) distribution, cross-docking, drop shipping, international import/export, on-demand project fulfillment (trade shows, promotional campaigns), and value-added services such as kitting, labeling, repacking, returns processing, and POS/POP assembly.

The company's technology backbone is the cloud-based EXTENSIV (formerly 3PL Warehouse Manager) platform, which provides real-time order management, multi-location inventory tracking, rate shopping, document scans, product images, and weekly software releases across both facilities. This is supplemented by in-house EDI integration capabilities supporting retailer compliance (EDI 856, ASN and related transaction sets) and pre-integrated drop-ship vendor status with Target, Walmart, and Nordstrom. Co-Operations is led by CEO Mark Granum, with Robert Kramer as Technology Director and facility managers Rosalinda Marquez (Tualatin) and Thomas Warren (Atlanta); the firm has no disclosed external institutional investors, parent company, or venture funding.

Revenue is generated through usage-based, custom-quoted 3PL fees covering storage (long-term and short-term), per-order fulfillment, and shipping, with multi-year contracts and additional per-project or per-unit charges for value-added services. The go-to-market is consultative and sales-led, relying on the company website, direct outreach by the CEO, trade show networking, and word-of-mouth referrals. Customer segments are hybrid across size (SMB to enterprise), persona (startups, brands, retailers), and use case (DTC e-commerce, retail distribution, international shipping, crowdfunding), with no public pricing tiers disclosed.
