Pallet-Management-Services

IFCO SYSTEMS is North America’s leading Pallet-Management-Services company, specializing in the procurement, reconditioning and distribution of wood pallets to and from the manufacturing and retail sectors. Pallets are used in virtually all industries that transport products. Every year, approximately 2.1 billion wooden pallets are in circulation in the United States

IFCO SYSTEMS focuses on pallet reconditioning and the surrounding supply chain logistics services – including pallet procurement, repair, shipping, tracking, sorting and retrieval solutions – to provide total, 360-degree Pallet-Management-Services. With the market share of new pallets in decline, the Pallet-Management-Services business is advancing significantly.

IFCO SYSTEMS is the largest nationwide provider of Pallet-Management-Services in the United States, supported by 157 total locations, of which 56 are our primary pallet refurbishment centers and 101 are other operating and satellite locations, many of which are located at or near retail distribution centers. We also have 132 partner companies that help complete our geographical coverage. Our North American headquarters in Houston, Texas operates as the principal back office for this business segment. As the singular national presence, IFCO SYSTEMS is the market leader by a wide margin with in excess of 11% national market share. By comparison, the second largest provider accounts for less than 1% of the national market.
