The Logistics Case for Inland Empire Fulfillment

The Inland Empire has become one of the most critical logistics corridors in the United States—and for good reason.

Located just east of Los Angeles, this region offers a unique combination of freight access, labor availability, modern infrastructure, and cost advantages that make it a smart choice for brands looking to optimize their West Coast fulfillment.

The value of Inland Empire fulfillment isn’t just in its location but also in the way you use it. DA’s California facility is built for your unique brand and needs.

If you're shipping to retailers, direct-to-consumer customers, or both, here’s why the Inland Empire belongs at the center of your distribution strategy.

Port Proximity = Faster Freight Flow

Southern California is built for freight. The Inland Empire sits at the crossroads of Interstate 10, I-15, and SR-60, connecting your goods to key markets across the western U.S. and beyond.

This region is also home to a vast network of intermodal rail yards, freight-forwarding hubs, and last-mile delivery carriers. Whether you're moving full truckloads or high-volume parcel shipments, the transportation ecosystem is already in place.

Reliable Labor in a Proven Logistics Hub

Warehousing and fulfillment operations live or die by workforce availability. The Inland Empire offers access to one of the country’s largest pools of logistics labor, with thousands of skilled workers experienced in picking, packing, kitting, and shipping.

At DA’s Bloomington, CA facility, our team knows how to scale quickly for seasonal surges, promotional campaigns, and new product launches—without compromising accuracy or turnaround times. (Insert CA Team photo with this paragraph.)
