"We switched our Evanston DC over to Florida Pallet Supply last quarter and haven't had a single delivery miss. Their food-grade pallets meet our FSMA documentation requirements every time, and their AP contact gets the invoice without it crossing our ops team."
"When our previous yard had a fire in 2025 and couldn't deliver, FPS rerouted our Evanston order to a backup supplier the same week. Same spec, same price. That kind of network redundancy is why we're not going back."
"Custom 36x42 pallets for a tricky retail program in Evanston - our previous vendor said it would take 3 weeks. Florida Pallet Supply had them on our dock in 6 days at a better per-pallet price. Worth the call."
