PL Logistics Outside Sales Representative

Founded in 1949, FW Logistics is a family-owned third-party logistics provider with a national footprint exceeding 7 million square feet of warehouse space. We specialize in 3PL
contract warehousing solutions
, including food-grade, dry, hazmat, and temperature-controlled operations.

FW Logistics is large enough to support complex, multi-location customers - yet small enough that sales professionals work directly with decision-makers, operations leaders, and ownership. We don’t sell one-off transactions. We build long-term logistics partnerships.

The 3PL Logistics Outside Sales Representative is responsible for driving new business growth by identifying, developing, and closing contract warehousing and integrated logistics opportunities for FW Logistics. This role manages the full consultative sales cycle, including prospecting, discovery, on-site meetings, facility tours, solution development, proposal presentation, negotiation, and close, with a focus on long-term, multi-year customer relationships rather than transactional freight.

The representative works closely with warehouse operations, leadership, and pricing teams to translate customer supply-chain needs into executable, profitable logistics solutions, while maintaining an active sales pipeline, tracking opportunities in the CRM, and expanding accounts through additional services and volume growth.

This position is ideal for a self-directed sales professional who understands longer sales cycles, values operational credibility, and can translate customer needs into executable warehouse solutions.
