ZONE 5 · 3-DAY GROUND · HQ TOWN

Just-in-time speed, no-waste rates.

Plano is where Toyota runs North America and Frito-Lay has run it for decades — a suburb that thinks in pull systems and takt times. We speak the language: 3-day ground from Paramount, CA on a cycle that never drifts, with zero waste anywhere on the invoice.

THE HEADQUARTERS ECONOMY

A suburb that does business like a downtown

Corporate campuses, luxury retail, and one of the country's most affluent consumer bases share the same few square miles of West Plano. Three different order profiles — one 3-day lane covers them all.

THE CAMPUS ROW

More Fortune 500 per square mile than most downtowns

Toyota moved its North American headquarters to Legacy West in 2017, joining Frito-Lay, JCPenney, JPMorgan Chase, and Liberty Mutual in one suburban corridor. We run corporate-gifting, employee-swag, and onboarding-kit programs into those campuses — kitted in California, delivered in bulk to the office, on a calendar HR actually keeps.

THE LUXURY CORRIDOR

Legacy West sets the unboxing bar

One of the highest-grossing mixed-use developments in Texas anchors a shopper who expects luxury-counter presentation at the doorstep. We fulfill beauty, luxury, and lifestyle brands into West Plano with premium packaging, branded inserts, and gift wrap as standard line items — not upcharges discovered later.

FBA ROUTING

Straight into the DFW cluster

FBA prep and forwarding into the Dallas-Fort Worth Amazon network. FNSKU labeling, poly-bagging, case packs, and split shipments handled in-house at Paramount before the linehaul pulls east.

THE PRODUCTION SCHEDULE

HQ towns surge on the corporate calendar — onboarding classes, gifting programs, the Q4 wave. We level-load the line ahead of each spike, and the rate on your kanban never changes mid-cycle.

What we see on the floor of the Plano lane

WALK 01

The Zone 5 sweet spot

Plano sits in the middle of the ground map from California: 3-day transit at Zone 5 rates that undercut coastal Zone 8 lanes by a wide margin. Fast enough for D2C beauty and supplements, cheap enough to keep free shipping viable — with 2-day express held in reserve for launches.

WALK 02

Selling into the supply chain itself

Frito-Lay's North America HQ and the broader PepsiCo corridor pull in packaging, ingredient, and B2B supply vendors from everywhere. We fulfill those programs with routing-guide compliance, EDI integration, and appointment-based deliveries — the paperwork side of lean, handled.

WALK 03

The richest suburban corridor in Texas

Plano, Frisco, McKinney, and Allen routinely top national lists for income and education, and they shop like it — high AOV, high frequency, low tolerance for sloppy fulfillment. One 3-day lane from Paramount covers the entire corridor plus the 7.9M-person DFW metro behind it.
