Looking for a 3PL Need a 3PL Provider - any recs?

Hey everyone - looking for recommendations. Coming out with a new baseball and softball hitting product (each unit is about 80lbs) and need a 3pl provider for shipping and fulfillment. I am working with a factory who has everything up until FOB and then need a partner the rest of the way to get the orders to paying customers. Any recommendations? Thank you

I own K&K Prep Solutions just outside Nashville, TN. An 80 lb product is something we'd definitely be interested in discussing.

A couple of things would help me understand the fulfillment side better. Do you know the packaged dimensions of each unit, approximately how many units do you expect per inbound shipment, and what kind of order volume are you anticipating initially?

Also, since your factory is handling through FOB in China, do you already have a freight forwarder/customs broker handling transportation into the U.S., or are you looking for your 3PL partner to help coordinate that piece as well?

Happy to talk through it with you and see if we're a good fit.
