Founded by longtime operator Marc Furmanski, Priority Fulfillment began as an internal solution to support a portfolio of DTC brands and Amazon storefronts. As frustrations with traditional 3PLs mounted-missed SLAs, weak integrations, and limited Amazon prep-the company was built to solve these challenges from a brand-owner's perspective.
The model gained traction. Without marketing or outbound sales, Priority Fulfillment began absorbing volume from brands in luxury apparel, footwear, beauty, and consumer goods. Its South Florida operation, paired with proprietary inventory management software, has helped clients improve order accuracy, shipping turnaround, and inventory visibility compared to legacy providers.
"Our new facility gives us room to grow while maintaining the performance standards we're known for," said Marc Furmanski. "We built this for operators, not as a pitch, and the market responded. Now we're scaling deliberately-with the right systems and the right clients."
As e-commerce brands increasingly prioritize profitability and operational control, Priority Fulfillment's expansion positions it to serve a new wave of growth-stage companies looking for reliable, performance-first logistics solutions. The company is now selectively onboarding brands that meet its volume, complexity, and alignment criteria.
About the company: Priority Fulfillment is a private, operator-founded logistics company that offers warehousing, pick and pack, kitting, B2B shipping, returns management, and real-time inventory tools for direct-to-consumer brands. Headquartered in South Florida, the company supports some of the fastest-scaling consumer brands in the U.S. with a focus on execution, transparency, and uptime.

The new freight search engine: How AI ranks and reveals 3PLs
The fight for freight visibility has changed. It no longer happens at trade shows or over email. It now takes place inside AI platforms. More companies use AI tools to find logistics providers. In 2024, 70% of U.S. transportation companies used AI solutions—17% more than the year before. Most buyers are not yet asking, 'Which 3PL should I use?' But they already use AI to compare vendors, review services, and build shortlists. AI visibility now plays a big role in logistics sales, and companies that do not show up in these results may miss good opportunities. In the past, referrals, directories, and trade events helped companies find third-party logistics providers (3PL). That approach is fading, as AI in the freight transportation market is projected to grow from $1.2 billion in 2023 to $6.8 billion by 2033. AI tools now help build strategy. They do more than route planning and demand forecasting; they also help with vendor selection by letting teams compare services quickly. HOW AI TOOLS CHOOSE WHICH 3PLS TO SHOW AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI process lots of content. They do not browse websites like people do. They scan documents and pick answers using signals like: Clear service descriptions with logistics terms Content with headings and short paragraphs Mentions in trusted sources like industry publications and government sites Recent updates that show the business is active Pages that load fast and show content without scripts or tabs These tools look for simple, direct answers that match the question. WHERE EACH AI PLATFORM GETS ITS INFORMATION Each AI platform gets information from different places. Profound's analysis of 30 million citations across AI platforms from August 2024 to June 2025 found clear patterns: • ChatGPT uses Wikipedia (47.9% of citations), Reddit (11.3%), and institutional sources. • Google AI Overviews uses Reddit (21%), YouTube (18.8%), Quora (14.3%), LinkedIn (13%), and Wikipedia (5.7%), among others. • Perplexity uses Reddit (46.7% of citations), YouTube (13.9%), user reviews, and community-generated content. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR 3PL MARKETING For ChatGPT visibility: Focus on getting mentioned in industry publications and keep Wikipedia entries accurate. ChatGPT likes trusted sources like FreightWaves and Transport Topics. For Google AI Overviews: Join Reddit communities like r/logistics and r/freight and create YouTube content. These platforms get many citations from Reddit discussions and YouTube videos where real logistics professionals share experiences. For Perplexity: Focus on Reddit engagement and review platforms. Perplexity gets almost half its citations from Reddit discussions. It also features user reviews from platforms like Yelp and G2. To test your visibility: Write 10 buyer prompts like 'Top cold chain 3PL.' Run them in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI. Use three variations per prompt per platform. Count how often your company appears. Review all 90 responses to find patterns. This testing method comes from Daydream's method on AI visibility optimization. It helps you measure where you stand and where to improve. The following content patterns often affect AI visibility. These insights are based on observations from this blog post, which explains how AI tools detect and quote useful content: 1. Low visibility Low visibility often occurs because AI tools do not use traffic as a signal. To improve visibility, use H2 questions and give direct answers at the start. 2. Inconsistent mentions Inconsistent mentions can result from the fact that different platforms have different content preferences. For example, ChatGPT tends to favor authoritative sources like Wikipedia and institutions, while Perplexity prefers user-generated content such as Reddit threads and customer reviews. 3. Content not found When content is not found, it's often because JavaScript or tabs hide key data. To address this, use server-side rendering or clean HTML. AI tools prefer short, answer-focused content. In freight, this means writing paragraph-level answers for questions like 'What is the best 3PL for cross-border shipments?' or 'Which providers offer refrigerated freight with HACCP certification?' These answers must be clear, specific, and formatted to match real buyer queries. Keep each paragraph under 80 words and focused on one clear idea. Begin each paragraph with the direct answer. Use real user questions as your H2 or H3 headings. Dedicate one page or section to a single use case or query. Include specific keywords that buyers actually type, such as 'cross-border 3PL.' Before: 'We're proud of our reliable cold chain service.' Better: 'We provide cold chain logistics with storage from 32°F to 70°F. Our HACCP-certified warehouses include real-time monitoring and direct delivery.' Also, add FAQ sections, use FAQ schema, and avoid hiding content in tabs, modals, or downloads. AI tools select FAQ pages, comparison lists, how-to guides, and pages that solve one clear problem. If your content follows this structure, it has a better chance of being selected. AI tools now play a major role in 3PL selection, as buyers use them to search for vendors that match their exact needs. Clear, structured, and specific content makes it easier for those tools to find and cite your business. Having more pages does not lead to better visibility. What matters is providing the right content in the right format. You also need to know where each AI platform gets its information. A freight company that writes for people and machines creates value for both. AI may not replace relationships, but it is already shaping how they begin. The companies that stay readable, helpful, and honest can earn the trust of both humans and machines.

FDA's proposed change to orange juice regulation will help local growers, Florida Citrus Mutual says
POLK COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) — Florida citrus growers are celebrating a proposal from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to change its definition of orange juice. 'We're thrilled,' said Matt Joyner, executive vice president and CEO of Florida Citrus Mutual. 'This has been almost 3.5 years in the making. Very frustrating situation, but we are excited about the opportunity to see the administration move forward with this rule change.' Florida-based vacation rental company files for bankruptcy Florida Citrus Mutual is a Polk County-based organization that advocates for Florida's citrus growers. The most recent data available show that Polk County is the top producer of citrus in terms of both production and acreage, according to Joyner. Federal regulation requires pasteurized orange juice to have a 10.5 Brix level, a measure of dissolved sugar content. 'When we look at the impacts of storms over the past decade and we see two decades of citrus greening that have impacted the Florida crop but also citrus worldwide, we know that trees have been stressed,' Joyner said. 'Trees have been impacted. So the naturally occurring Brix or sugar levels in that fruit have decreased.' Florida growers often have to blend their juice with imported juices to meet that threshold. This month, the FDA proposed lowering the required Brix level from 10.5% to 10%. Joyner said Florida growers can achieve this ratio without altering the flavor. 'We've done, as an industry, many taste tests, consumer taste tests, panels,' Joyner said. 'There is no recognition of the difference between 10.5 and 10.0 Brix.' U.S. Senators Rick Scott and Ashley Moody have advocated for the regulation change. 'Our growers have faced many hardships over the past several years, from devastating storms to citrus greening, and could no longer endure the unnecessary and burdensome regulations that favored foreign growers,' said Sen. Ashley Moody in a statement from her office. News Channel 8 asked Florida's Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson about the proposed change Thursday. 'Citrus growers have many more problems than the Brix standard,' he said. 'The Brix standard will certainly give them relief.' Simpson said the state has invested $100 million to help growers replant citrus trees after devastation from storms and disease, which has cut Florida's crop by 90%. Simpson said research into disease-resistant tree species has made 'significant progress.' 'What we hope is five years from now — an industry that went from 290 million boxes at its peak to maybe 12 million boxes this coming year — will maybe get back up to 50 or 60 million boxes of fruit,' Simpson said. 'We're very concerned about our citrus industry, but farmers will adapt, and farmers are very resilient.' The FDA will accept public comments through November 4, 2025.

St. Pete city council advances utility rate hike proposal despite residents' complaints over abnormal bills
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (WFLA) — Some St. Petersburg residents said they're drowning in water bills they shouldn't have to pay, and now, city leaders are moving forward with plans to raise rates. City Council voted four to two on Monday to advance a proposal that would increase utility bills by 8% to 17%. City officials said the extra revenue would fund upgrades to aging water, sewer, and stormwater systems, reduce emergency repairs, and improve service reliability. FDA's proposed change to orange juice regulation will help local growers, Florida Citrus Mutual says Councilmember Corey Givens said the improvements are long overdue, but questioned the size of the proposed increase. 'A 17% increase is a bit much… we need to take this slow and steady. Folks are still hurting from hurricane, and it's not fair to impose such a burden on them like this now,' Givens said. For many residents, the bigger issue is the city's unresolved billing problems. Attorney Matt Weidner, president of the Eden Isle Neighborhood Association, said he's hearing from residents across the city about unexplained charges, sometimes for homes that sat vacant after last hurricane season. 'How dare you go before City Council… saying we're going to raise your rates when you refuse to explain why the billing is wrong, going back months now,' Weidner said. John Cappa said his mother's home has been billed hundreds of dollars a month even though the water is shut off at the street. 'We have gotten anywhere from $300 to $400 bills,' Cappa said. 'The water is shut off from the street.' Earlier this year, Mayor Ken Welch said multiple factors may have contributed to the abnormal bills, including flooding, outdated systems, and metering issues. 'We still don't have a silver bullet as to why this happened,' Welch said. 'The flooding, the legacy system … the metering issue is another one. It was the perfect storm.' The proposal now heads to a public hearing on Sept. 24, where residents can formally weigh in before council takes a final vote. If approved, the new rates would take effect Oct. 1.
