Arizona has become a very important logistics hub as its population and business base has grown. Phoenix is now the fifth-largest city in the U.S and Arizona has become an epicenter for technology manufacturing in the Southwest, with corporations attracted by the state’s business-friendly tax structure, knowledge-based workforce, and favorable weather. BC Logistics will capitalize on this growth to expand business across a wide range of services, including air & ocean freight, domestic air & ground, logistics planning, warehousing, crating & package, asset recovery/white glove services, and time-definite courier service.
