Distribution Services now part of our services

Auer Agency | Charlotte, NC | 704.236.0568 | mariellen@aueragency.com

We have always assisted our clients with apparel design, production, manufacturing and now DISTRIBUTION AND FULFILLMENT services.
Why worry about selling your goods and apparel out of your garage or basement? Do you really have the time to track, pack and drop ship the goods for all your orders? What will happen when you land that big order and you can't do it all by yourself?
Many small companies start out this way, but creating their goods or apparel on their own, however, they fall short of having the time to also pack and ship. We can help with custom packaging from printing your logo on the boxes, package your apparel in poly bags and place hang tags on the apparel and insert brochuresin the shipment to raise awareness about your company and lower your shipping costs by using a larger warehouse and distribution center.
In the end, this allows you to drive up sales, since you will have more time to work on your business and sales.
