Global Logistics Company Pursues Vertical Sales Opportunities with Higher Gross Profit Margins by Offering Expanded Integration of Supply Chain Services
JAMAICA, N.Y., April 14, 2011 - Janel World Trade, Ltd. (OTC BB: JLWT), a full-service global provider of integrated transportation logistics and environmental services, completed the formation of a new business segment within Janel. The new business segment includes a team of industry veterans who will develop vertical sales primarily in the food industry. Their initial focus will be on developing new products with Italian food manufacturers, the management of all transportation and logistics associated with the distribution of the products and the marketing and sale of the products in the United States.
The assembled team has decades of experience in the food industry with a focus on supply chain services, product development, B2B and B2C sales and marketing expertise, offering prospective Janel customers product development, product transportation and logistics, and sales and marketing services.
"This is a great opportunity for us and I am very proud of the experienced team Nick Ferrara, the President of our New Jersey operation and a Director of Janel, has assembled" said James N. Jannello, Chief Executive Officer of Janel. Jannello continued, "Nick and I are excited about the team's ability to close new business generating vertical revenues with higher operating margins where we can potentially buy and sell the product and provide end to end transportation and logistics services, building shareholder value. We will be providing more details on this new initiative in the near future."
Nick Ferrara said, "We are very excited about the organization and the potential for this new business segment. We are creating innovative services that address the inability of many manufacturers to adapt their products to local markets and deal with supply chain issues, such as the continuously shortening of time to market requirements, the decreasing visibility into market demand shifts, and supply chain interruptions. Using our decades of experience will enable manufacturers now, more than ever, to act quickly while maintaining their product's safety, quality, and price."
