Many foods require careful handling for proper transportation and storage. L&M’s facility is inspected annually by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture to comply with best practices and regulatory requirements. From Italian olives to Wisconsin cheese, we can move it and store it until your customer is ready for reception.
International Shipping
Many of the world’s finest foods are transported across international boundaries. L&M can help you import into the United States or export from the United States, using air or sea. We’ll help you pick the best equipment, vendors, and packaging, all with an intense focus on cost and budget. Vessels and containers are critically important to these goods, we have the experience required to ensure a delivery that’s fresh and fit for immediate consumption.
Drayage
L&M handles drayage operations for many customers with products travelling through the Port of NY/NJ and Philadelphia. Our dry vans or reefers are ready for pickup upon discharge from a variety of steamship lines. We recognize the constraints that demand an immediate turnaround for containers and all things related to international shipping. Let us alleviate the stress associated with very tight timetables. Having our own assets and people allow L&M to quickly respond to any unexpected events.
Trucking
L&M serves a 350 mile radius from Philadelphia with its own trucks and drivers. Outside the northeast, we utilize the services of various motor carriers who have a reputation for speed, reliability, and affordability. Reefers available for any truck move within the contiguous United States.

Labeling
Packaging, breakdown, and consolidation frequently require labeling, whether at the unit level, pallet level, and shipment level. L&M can handle any industry standard barcode or other labeling requirements.
