HOUSTON, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Texas Logistic and Fulfillment, a leading 3PL and logistics provider, has reached a major milestone by operating over one million square feet of warehousing space across Texas. The company also proudly announces the launch of a dedicated renewable energy division specializing in solar panels and lithium battery storage.

Under the leadership of CEO Omri Shafran, the company is rapidly responding to Texas’s growing demand for clean energy infrastructure.

“Due to very high demand in the Texas market, we decided to establish a dedicated team and warehouses tailored for renewable energy products and solar panels,” said Shafran. “This includes HVAC-controlled facilities with low humidity—something that’s particularly challenging in Texas weather—as well as specialized forklifts and handling equipment. We’ve also created critical SOPs and assigned a specialized operations team to support this sector.”

This innovation has caught the attention of policymakers, including Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who praised the company’s forward-looking initiatives and encouraged more renewable energy companies to enter the Texas market.

Texas Logistic and Fulfillment is also celebrating a new strategic partnership with Tongwei Solar, the world’s largest solar panel manufacturer. The collaboration marks a significant step in strengthening global supply chains.

“These new partnerships will strengthen the relationship between Texas and leading Asian manufacturers,” noted Dimitri Menin, President of Texas Logistic and Fulfillment. “We’re proud that Texas Logistic will serve as the gateway for these companies into the U.S. market.”

With a 550% increase in sales over the past year, Texas Logistic and Fulfillment is on track to redefine the logistics landscape—not just in Texas, but across the United States.

SAN DIEGO, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Flexible Assembly Systems Inc today announced that a confluence of global events and evolving economic strategies is illuminating significant opportunities for manufacturing reshoring. This trend, where companies bring production home, is gaining momentum, promising substantial benefits for national economies, supply chain stability, and innovation.

The drive behind reshoring is multifaceted. Geopolitical uncertainties, exposed supply chain vulnerabilities, and rising international shipping costs and tariffs have compelled businesses to re-evaluate. Furthermore, growing consumer preference for domestic goods and advancements in automation are making domestic manufacturing increasingly competitive.

“We are seeing a pivotal shift in manufacturing strategies,” notes Eddie Silverberg. “The focus is on resilience, quality control, and fostering innovation closer to home. Reshoring offers a clear pathway to these objectives.”

The advantages of reshoring extend beyond individual companies. It is anticipated to stimulate domestic job creation across various sectors, contributing to broader economic growth and a strengthened industrial base. Shorter supply chains also lead to reduced lead times, greater market agility, and a diminished carbon footprint.

Moreover, reshoring can foster robust innovation, with closer proximity between R&D and production accelerating technological implementation. Government initiatives are further encouraging this shift, aiming to rebuild key industries.

While transitioning to reshored operations presents challenges like upfront investment and potential skills gaps, the long-term strategic benefits are compelling. Companies recognize the advantages of enhanced production control, improved supply chain security, and the appeal of domestically made products.

As businesses navigate a dynamic global landscape, reshoring manufacturing is poised to reshape industries, bolster economies, and create a more secure, sustainable production future.
