Zenith Global Logistics Hires Douglas Schwartz as VP, Business Development
Furniture supply chain leader Zenith Global Logistics has hired 3PL sales and management professional Douglas Schwartz for the newly created post of Vice President, Business Development. Schwartz will be responsible for managing service to national accounts.
“Although many single-store retailers and small chains are at the heart of our business, we’ve grown to the point where we really needed a results-oriented individual focusing exclusively on the needs of national accounts,” states Jack Hawn, President & CEO. “Doug Schwartz brings to our customers a broad background in third-party logistics from general commodities to home furnishings. He’s completely tuned in to best practices along the entire supply chain, whether that’s ‘dot.com’ distribution and fulfillment services such as pick, pack and ship or international storage and consolidation operations originating from Asia.” Schwartz will report to Hawn.
“I’ve had the opportunity to work with the Zenith Global team both domestically and internationally, and I’ve always been impressed by their professionalism and attention to detail when it comes to servicing the customer,” remarks Schwartz. “In this business – and especially now – the key to success begins with keeping your commitments, and there are very few companies that deliver on that the way Zenith does.”
Zenith Global Logistics is a total supply chain logistics provider specializing exclusively in home furnishings. Internationally, the company services North America, the Caribbean and Europe with warehousing, consolidation and full/split container programs originating from multiple Asia locations, including a humidity-controlled warehouse in Vietnam. Domestically, the company owns and operates its own truck fleet as well as transportation hubs and more than 3.5 million square feet of warehousing, including facilities in Southern California, Texas, Mississippi, North Carolina and Virginia. Zenith Global provides national home delivery service to all points in the United States and Canada through a network of company-owned delivery operations and local market providers.
