SUMMARY:
In a move that promises to greatly expand its potential list of services for its clients, Spectra, a 3PL fulfillment company based in South Carolina, has now registered all three of their facilities with the US Food & Drug Administration (previously, only one of their three facilities was registered). The primary benefit gained with this registration is the ability to store and fulfill certain food products. Over the past several years, Spectra has made a number of upgrades to its certifications, services, and capabilities, and the FDA registration for all three of their facilities is a significant one that opens up valuable opportunities for clients looking to increase their fulfillment capabilities.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Spectra is a Columbia, SC based third party fulfillment provider with several decades of experience. Throughout the COVID pandemic era, the organization not only met the dramatically increased demand from clients for fulfillment services, but also expanded its inventory and shipping capabilities. Today Spectra operates three facilities in South Carolina, strategically located close to Charleston’s ports and the Eastern seaboard shipping routes.
While a majority of Spectra’s activities involve printed materials (often utilizing their advanced, in-house print facility for added efficiency in fulfillment), the team also stores, inventories, and ships many other varieties of items on behalf of their clients from their fulfillment centers. Some of these item categories carry special regulatory considerations, requiring the 3PL provider to obtain certifications and registrations with government agencies. Some prominent examples of these include HIPAA compliance and SOC II certification. Spectra also upholds strict data security standards when handling PII on behalf of their clients.
At the beginning of 2024, Spectra is proud to announce that all three of their facilities are now registered with the US Food & Drug Administration, which enables them to handle nonperishable food products in their operations. Of course, Spectra is committed to bringing the same advanced inventory practices, kitting accuracy, and shipping expertise that their clients have come to expect.
While fulfillment of food items comes with its own list of specific requirements to ensure safety for the end consumer, this area of B2B and B2C fulfillment has grown dramatically in popularity since 2020 and the beginning of the COVID pandemic. With travel and shopping restricted in many areas, buyers quickly grew accustomed to the convenience and enjoyment of having food items delivered to their doorstep. This ordering system continues to be popular with shoppers today, and creates ongoing opportunities for entrepreneurial companies looking to reach B2C end users with monthly subscription boxes and other food delivery methods.
For expert fulfillment of all types of materials, including nonperishable food items covered under Spectra’s FDA registration, potential clients can get in touch with Spectra by visiting their website, spectraintegration.com. The leadership at Spectra looks forward to the ways that this added service will create a wider, more comprehensive set of offerings for clients and allow them to accomplish all of their fulfillment practices with the help of a single skilled 3PL provider.
