General fulfillment operation with a verified FBA prep service. Never ranked and never counted in our prep-specialist stats.
Initiative Distribution is a small 3PL in Upper Tract, West Virginia, at 29 Industrial Park Road, run by Initiative Distribution LLC (formed September 2024). Its owner, a long-time client of the facility, took over the warehouse assets when the previous parent company closed the site; 2025 was the new company's first full year, with 34,000 orders and 89,000 units shipped by its own count. The core business is DTC and crowdfunding fulfillment, assembly, storage and returns. The FBA prep page lists FNSKU labeling, poly bagging with suffocation warnings, bubble wrap and overboxing, bundles and multi-packs, box content labels, shipment creation, quality inspection and removal handling. Prep is billed at $40 per hour with materials at cost, and the page says most clients start around $1,000 to $1,450 a month; the general rate card adds a $420 to $690 monthly account fee and a $690 onboarding fee. Cautions: the site's '20+ years' refers to the building's previous operator, not this company. Its space figures disagree (about 100,000 vs 70,000 sq ft). No email address is shown on its website; contact is by phone or web form.
