Opportunity BasketSupply Chain Staffing Cooperative (Logistics Labor Pool)
A member-owned cooperative that pre-recruits, vets, and maintains a rotating roster of 200–500 trained contract workers across warehousing, dock, and last-mile roles within a 3–5 state region. Members (3PLs, warehouse operators, freight forwarders) pay annual dues + per-deployment fees; the co-op handles background checks, skills certification, scheduling, and dispatch via a simple phone/SMS interface (no app required). Workers are guaranteed minimum hours annually, reducing turnover and ensuring consistent quality.

Supply chain managers struggle to quickly fill workforce gaps during seasonal demand spikes without incurring costly delaysSupply chain operations face unpredictable demand fluctuations that require rapid workforce scaling, but recruiting and onboarding permanent employees is too slow and expensive. Contract workers are presented as a solution, yet supply chain managers lack efficient systems to source, vet, and deploy qualified contract labor quickly enough to prevent costly operational delays during peak seasons.
