NPD Logistics is proud to announce that it is now an FDA registered warehouse. Why is FDA registration a big deal for warehouses? Commercially prepared food, drugs, and other products, such as cosmetics, have very rigid FDA guidelines about how they can be stored and shipped. These guidelines are critical because they help ensure consumer safety. Safety can be impacted by storage conditions, including temperature, humidity, and even the presence of pests. As a result, many commercial ventures find logistics to be one of their greatest operational challenges. Having access to an FDA registered warehouse can simplify logistics for...

2011 was a big year for the world. Princess Kate and Prince William got married; iconic Apple founder Steve Jobs passed away; Osama Bin Laden was found by U.S. troops; Charlie Sheen was fired from Two and a Half Men; and Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” was making pop culture history. In New York City, 2011 was the year of the Occupy protests and NPD Logistics began providing concierge-level customer service to the New York/ New Jersey area. Happy Anniversary to us! While 2011 was a big year for NPD Logistics, 2016 promises to be even more amazing: we became...
What can be more frustrating than having dozens of things on your to-do list, but being forced to wait in line before you can get to them? Unfortunately, many small and medium sized business owners experience this frustration several times a week, as they wait at the Post Office to send packages or even as they wait in traffic while they drive to the Post Office to pick up mail. Even if each trip only takes a half-hour at a time, the reality is that every moment spent waiting in line to send a package or driving to the Post...
While NPD has grown into an internationally respected logistics company, which primarily services New York/ New Jersey and the greater tristate area, we began with a simple goal: providing high quality courier and messenger service to the New York and New Jersey area. People outside of the tristate area may not even understand how critical a reliable messenger service is to the flow of business in the tristate area, especially New York City, but all native New Yorkers are familiar with the ubiquitous bike messenger or other courier, speeding deliveries from one location to another. What sets NPD apart from...
Importing goods for sale in the United States is a critical part of the U.S. economy. As manufacturing has moved overseas, it is literally impossible to find some categories of goods available in bulk in the United States. Therefore, to have access to those goods, end-line consumers have to rely upon importers to bring them in from other countries. In turn, in order to make a profit, importers have to secure reliable and affordable source materials and shipping into the country. Perhaps the greatest challenge that importers face is ensuring that they are complying with the applicable federal rules and...
As its name suggests, air freight is the shipment of goods via an air carrier. Air freight shipping is the go-to option for most people when time is of the essence and the destination is far away. However, because air freight shipping tends to be the most expensive shipping option, its convenience is often weighed against the cost. Air freight shipping is, more often than not, used in conjunction with other forms of shipping. For international shipments, a parcel may travel by boat, rail, and ground transportation before reaching its final destination. For more local shipments, ground transportation is almost...

Publishing and distribution are two entirely different business areas, and yet many small publishers are faced with the challenge of writing, editing, and publishing periodical works like magazines, and with distributing them. Unfortunately, while the world of publishing has opened up tremendously, allowing people to literally develop entire magazines from a space as big as a home office, and those magazines can be printed by printing companies that sell their services to publishers, these magazines are still a set size and of a certain weight, making it impossible for many smaller publishers to store the magazines in their offices or...
