LOS ANGELES, May 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Two omnichannel logistics and technology leaders, Port Logistics Group and Whiplash Merchandising Inc., are co-exhibiting at the 14th annual Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition (IRCE), held June 5-8, 2018 at McCormick Place West in Chicago. IRCE provides an environment for retailers, solution providers and industry experts to network and discuss the latest strategies and trends in e-commerce.
IRCE 2018 is expected to draw nearly 10,000 attendees and 3,100 retail companies to the four-day event which features 130 conference sessions and more than 600 exhibitors.
Earlier this year, Port Logistics Group, the nation's leading provider of omnichannel logistics services, and Whiplash, an e-commerce technology company providing advanced fulfillment solutions and best-in-class shopping cart integration capabilities to emerging brands, partnered to expand their offerings in direct-to-consumer fulfillment.
