About Apex Forwarding & Logistics
Founded with West Michigan industrial grit, engineered for nationwide multi-modal scale.
"Freight and Storage, Engineered for Motion."
Apex Forwarding & Logistics (AFL Logistics) was established to bridge the gap between regional trucking companies and monolithic supply chain conglomerates.
Rooted in West Michigan’s rich manufacturing base, we built our operational headquarters in Grand Rapids to serve the demanding supply chains of automotive pioneers, furniture builders, and agricultural processors. From there, we scaled outward—investing in major intermodal, warehouse, and cross-dock gateways across Illinois, Texas, Georgia, California, and Pennsylvania.
The Functional Scope ("Forwarding & Logistics"): Total custody—we handle both the physical transport over highway and rail, and the physical warehouse footprint.
Owned and operated Class-A high-bay warehousing facilities.
On-time carrier dispatch and dock appointment adherence.
Direct rail spurs connecting Norfolk Southern and CSX corridors.
West Michigan active dispatch and logistics engineering command.

"From their direct rail spur siding to their refrigerated storage, AFL operates like a true Fortune 500 partner. We scaled from 2,000 pallets to 18,000 pallets in West Michigan and Dallas with zero hiccups."
"When port delays hit Long Beach, AFL stepped in with immediate transloading in Ontario CA and expedited team drivers into our Ohio assembly plants. Outstanding communication and live GPS tracking."
