Most brands evaluating a Savannah 3PL are solving one of two problems: containers are sitting too long after they land, or fulfillment cannot keep pace with what the brand has already sold. Both problems have the same root cause, and it is usually distance — from the port, from the freight, from the people who touch the inventory.

Komar Distribution Services operates a 760,000 square foot Class A distribution center 24 miles from the Port of Savannah and 2.5 miles from the Hyundai Metaplant. Everything below is what that building does, what it measures, and what it has already proven.

Port-adjacent, and why that changes your cost

Twenty-four miles from the Port of Savannah is not a geography fact. It is a cost structure. Every mile between a terminal and a warehouse is a mile where containers accrue demurrage, chassis run out, and a brokered carrier decides your schedule.

KDS runs its own drayage rather than brokering it, which puts pickup timing under our control instead of someone else's dispatch queue. Containers move from berth to dock and into processing on the same operating clock, 24 hours a day.

  • Expedited turnaround. Fewer idle chassis days, less demurrage and per diem exposure.
  • Tech-driven visibility. Real-time tracking on every move, so your team stops chasing status updates.
  • Flexible capacity. A responsive chassis pool, drivers, and trucks that scale with your inbound schedule.
  • A dedicated 24/7 team. One group accountable for drayage, receiving, and put-away rather than three vendors pointing at each other.

Foreign Trade Zone Certified

Duty you defer is working capital you keep

Operating inside a Foreign Trade Zone means duty is not paid when goods land. It is paid when they enter U.S. commerce — and on goods that are re-exported, generally not at all. Weekly consolidated entry reduces merchandise processing fees on top of that.

Duty deferral
Cash stays in your business while inventory sits in the zone.
MPF reduction
Weekly consolidated entry instead of a fee on every entry.
Lower carrying cost
Efficient customs management, handled by people who do it daily.

Capabilities

One building, one inventory pool, one accountable team — across ecommerce, retail, and wholesale.

Ecommerce fulfillment

  • Same-day shipping on orders received before cutoff.
  • Rate-shopped parcel against KDS-negotiated carrier contracts, so you are not paying list.
  • Thousands of packages daily with the throughput history to prove it.
  • 75+ fulfillment channels connected, including FBA and Seller Fulfilled Prime.
  • Real-time tracking and analytics backed by 24/7 support.

Pick, pack, and ship

T-Sort tilt-tray robotics handle pick and pack with a level of precision that manual processes cannot sustain at volume. The system is built for high-throughput, high-SKU environments — the profile that breaks most warehouses.

Video only shows so much. Walk the floor, watch the robotics run a live wave, and talk to the people operating it.

Book a facility tour

Carton in / carton out

Immediate-needs processing for freight that cannot wait: same-day receive, label, and ship.

Garment on hanger

Decades of GOH processing for major retailers — hanging, storage, and floor-ready transport for product that cannot be folded.

Transloading

Fast, responsive, efficient container-to-trailer handling, with the client satisfaction record to back it.

Kitting and value-added services

Responsive, fast-turning, and accurate. Poly-bagging, ticketing, multipacks, displays, and rework — performed in house, not subcontracted, so a unit that needs attention never leaves the building.

Supply chain technology

Industry-leading software with experienced 24/7 global management behind it. Real-time inventory, order, and exception visibility — without your team building or maintaining any of it.

Built for sensitive product, and for the people handling it

The building is temperature-controlled throughout — specialized storage for pharmaceuticals, foodstuffs, and electronics, protecting product integrity from receipt to dispatch. In a coastal climate, that also means no condensation damage and no packaging breakdown during a Georgia summer.

It is also optimized for the people on the floor. Comfortable working conditions show up as retention, and retention shows up as accuracy during the weeks accuracy is hardest to hold.

Sustainability at scale: a 2.5-megawatt solar array — among the three largest at any industrial site in Georgia — alongside energy-efficient facility design. For brands carrying ESG commitments, that is a reportable line rather than a talking point.

A 3PL built by brand operators

Komar has been making and moving product since 1908. Komar Distribution Services launched in 1998 for a specific reason: we had warehouse capacity sitting idle outside our own peak, and brands whose peak ran opposite needed it.

That origin matters more than the founding date. Before we ran fulfillment for anyone else, we were the customer — selecting 3PLs, negotiating their contracts, and absorbing the consequences when they got it wrong. The routing guides, the chargebacks, the peak-season capacity crunch, and the seasonal sawtooth were our operating problems long before they were client requirements.

Today KDS serves 100+ brands and 500+ retailers across 50 categories, with an average workforce tenure of more than seven years.
