Media RelationsKamino-Schawbel relationship still strong after five years
The Schawbel Corporation, a manufacturer and distributor of consumer products in over 20 countries, has been a customer of Kamino for over 5 years. “We import products from Europe and Asia into Kamino's Chicago facility where they are redistributed throughout the United States and Canada”. (Ed Westerman, Operations Manager, the Schawbel Corporation)
Ed states, “Because of their versatility, Kamino is able to take care of our import, export and 3PL requirements all under one roof and due to the nature of our business, whereby a customer will require immediate turnaround for a product in a special display configurations or with special labelling requirements, we now also rely on Kamino to provide light assembly and packaging services. Our business is growing at a rapid rate and Kamino is there for us while we experience these growing pains.”
Formed in 1981, Schawbel is dedicated to the discovery and development of new technologies and a leader in bringing innovative, patented products to market. The company is involved in every phase of product development including: unearthing new technology, applying this technology to product concepts, manufacturing the products, and employing marketing firms with powerful brand recognition to market products throughout the world.
“Kamino's "customer centric" attitude towards its clients is company-wide. We have used Kamino's services in Seattle and Atlanta with seamless success. On behalf of the Schawbel Corporation, I am glad to endorse Kamino International, its people and its services.”
Kamino are currently handling the movement of Schawbel products from Thailand and China into the US and Europe. The custom packaging is carried out if required and finally the distribution of the product once it enters the Kamino warehouse. Kamino are also now handling returns processing as required and control the carrier selection and movement of all of their domestic freight.
Larry Peckler, Manager of Kamino Chicago states, “They are a “partner” in the true sense of the word. They started as a small account and continue to grow and mature as a company and as a valued customer to Kamino.”
