3PL-Rx announces merger with American Chain of Warehouses, reinforcing commitment to innovation in the logistics industry

3PL-Rx, a modern logistics and marketing platform founded by Chris and Zach Kane, has announced today that it has merged with The American Chain of Warehouses (ACWI), the nation’s oldest sales and marketing organization for third-party logistics providers. This merger unites ACWI’s 115-year legacy of industry leadership with 3PL-Rx’s modern digital strategy, creative content, and technology solutions, giving members a stronger voice and a more effective platform for business growth.

Chris Kane, newly appointed President of ACWI, emphasized the alignment of missions:  “When Zach and I started 3PL-Rx, we weren’t looking to get rich. Our goal was to help 3PLs grow. The American Chain shares that mission, and this merger allows us to combine a century of credibility with the cutting-edge tools and marketing that today’s 3PLs need.”

As part of the transition:

1. Chris Kane will serve as President.

2. Zach Kane will serve as Vice President of Technology & Administration.

3. The 3PL-Rx team, including Mariah McGregor and Sofia Fernandez de la Reguera, will continue in their roles supporting membership development, creative content, and outreach.

Current ACWI members will retain their existing membership rates for the next year, with new members joining at a competitive rate of $495/month — positioning the organization alongside other leading national logistics associations.

The combined organization will immediately begin expanding into open markets across the U.S., while also strengthening its presence in fast-growing areas such as e-commerce fulfillment.

“Our members will benefit from more leads, stronger marketing, and the credibility that comes from being part of an organization that has stood for over a century,” said Kane. We will be the only organization led by a former 3PL owner, “This is just the beginning of a new chapter for the American Chain.”
