Prep-primary operation with a real co-primary line (fulfillment, packaging, sourcing, or storage), disclosed on this profile.

Editor summary

Elite Prep Center is a prep-first fulfillment operation in Franklinville, New Jersey, a rural South Jersey site rather than a metro warehouse hub. The site gives drive times of 22 minutes to the Amazon fulfillment center in Logan Township and 47 minutes to the Walmart center in Hamilton Township. Item prep runs $1.00 a unit up to 1,000 units a month, $0.85 from 1,001 and $0.70 from 5,001. Storage bills only after 30 days. The prep line covers receiving and inspection with photos, FNSKU and GTIN labeling, polybag, bundles, inserts and carton rebuilds, palletization, and LTL or parcel into fulfillment centers, across Amazon FBA, Walmart WFS and TikTok Shop. Direct-to-consumer fulfillment is a separate line. The homepage claims "8+ Years" of experience and "5M+ Units" prepped, both the operator's own figures. Its About timeline dates a 2017 garage selling start, but the entity dates to 2022, when the domain was registered. Cautions: no New Jersey company filing could be found through any public path, so the legal entity is unconfirmed. The published phone is a New York City number despite the South Jersey address. The four named customer case studies cannot be checked independently, and the site's performance figures move: 98.7 percent described customer retention in June 2026 and describes accuracy now.
