We provide third party logistics 3PL services to businesses that want to grow or gain a competitive edge in their market place while increasing their profitability through the flexibility and efficiency of their supply chains. 3PL services are essentially logistics services for hire’ and these services can be integrated or bundled together to achieve greater efficiencies for your business. Traditionally, businesses and organizations have performed their own logistics functions in house’ but it is now well recognized that outsourcing some or all of your logistics activities is the smarter and more profitable move. We want to provide you with outstanding warehousing and supply chain solutions so that you can get on with running your business and doing what you do best.
In the months following the 1987 stock market crash, times were tough for our founder and Managing Director, Ben Evans. Ben seized an opportunity to start a logistics company called GDL’ which would later change its name to Online Distribution Services. This became an attractive prospect for the Freightways Group which acquired 50 of the business initially and the balance a few years later. Before long there was a dedicated team of ten, operating four warehouses in Christchurch.
As more and more companies began to consider the benefits they could gain from outsourcing their logistics, Ben and his team recognized there was a real need to have storage and distribution facilities operating at both ends of the country. The decision was made to open a warehouse in Auckland and clients were soon benefitting from the nationwide storage and distribution efficiencies provided. The business now operates from eleven modern and efficient warehouse facilities including an 7525 m2 state of the art warehousing and distribution center that was designed and built in Christchurch. Today, Online Distribution remains a privately owned family business with a team of more than 90 dedicated, passionate and hard working people successfully operating eleven warehouses strategically located in Christchurch and Auckland.
Working with Online Distribution is one of the best business decisions I’ve made. I’m really impressed with how willing Online have been to accommodate my product and to work with me in finding the best solutions for it . We value the partnership that has developed with Online Distribution and are delighted to be able to recommend the services they provide to any company looking for a specialised, tailor made solution. ’. I have personally been involved in warehousing and distribution for more than 20 years, on various levels as both a customer and employee, and I believe that makes me one of the toughest critics within the industry. I hold a very high regard for the team at Online Distribution and I am grateful for the relationships developed over the years that continue to grow stronger by the day. Our partnership with Online Distribution over the last 17 years has enabled us to grow our business and provide a service beyond our customer’s expectations.
We have consistently received professional service and a high standard of care, both for us and our customers. Online Distribution has consistently shown commitment to our business, with a level of personal attention that has enabled us to be the success we are today. We look forward to growing with Online Distribution in the future, and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a supply chain, distribution or logistics specialist. ’. In March 2001 Day Timers New Zealand made the decision to outsource the warehouse and distribution functions of the business, and contracted Online Distribution to manage these functions.
Through all these changes Online Distribution has come to understand our needs and the high standards that must be maintained for Day Timers to remain successful. ’. We value our partnership with Online Distribution which contributes at all levels of our business. I would recommend Online Distribution to any business looking for a successful solution with third party logistics. ’

In the months following the 1987 stock market crash, times were tough for our founder and Managing Director, Ben Evans.
Ben’s employer’s business had failed and Ben was left wondering what the future held. He recognized a developing trend overseas where more and more organizations were contracting out their physical distribution activities such as warehousing and materials handling to achieve greater flexibility and efficiency of their supply chain. Ben seized an opportunity to start a logistics company called GDL’ which would later change its name to Online Distribution Services. GDL set up warehouses in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland and from its inception faced many challenges.
This became an attractive prospect for the Freightways Group which acquired 50 of the business initially and the balance a few years later. T
